Bucket List Tummy

Bucket List Tummy Bucket List Tummy is a food & nutrition blog and brand sharing easy, kid-friendly snacks and recipes for the whole family. Thanks for dropping by.

From starting solids, to appeasing picky toddlers, to getting a meal on the table in 30 minutes, we want to be your go-to resource! I'm a Registered Dietitian with my Master's in Public Health and Nutrition. Food is my life. The name, "Bucket List Tummy" came to me while reviewing my never-ending list of coffee shops, restaurants, food trucks, farmer’s markets and dessert places I want to try, which is mostly what my bucket list is –with some adventurous, outdoor scenes thrown in! My bucket list is basically my itinerary for myself, and it guides me and helps me to explore a new area. What better way to explore than through food and culture? My life seemingly revolves around food, and that’s how I really enjoy life to the fullest. I believe that food has so much more purpose to our lives than just helping us survive, build muscle, provide nutrients – yes, all of those things are essential. However, food also brings people together, brings happiness and satisfaction, and creates memories. I wholeheartedly believe that all foods can fit into a healthy lifestyle. Come along for the ride!

Let's talk about pumpkin and getting more Vitamins A, C and fiber into our day! Canned pumpkin puree is such a nutrition powerhouse. I love these two "no cook" recipes for adding pumpkin, both are on the blog.

Which one will you be making first?

If you've been in search of a good protein powder that doesn't taste chalky, I think I've found it!

It makes every smoothie taste like a milkshake, but more importantly, it's THIRD PARTY TESTED and verified by the Clean Label Project, so it's free of all contaminants and heavy metals, and actually has what it says it does (unlike many protein powders on the market, which are not tested or regulated, sadly!).

I promise, there is ZERO CHALKY TASTE. It's soo good! I love the dark chocolate powder with banana, milk and peanut butter (+ spinach/frozen berries), but the Vanilla Bourbon has quickly become a go-to when mixed with banana, pumpkin puree and milk.

Which would YOU choose first?

Food waste is a major issue and what if doing more of this helped reduce it? A 2024 survey from Ohio State University found that freezing food was associated with less food ending up in the trash!

We have research that Frozen entrees do save time/energy – up to 20 minutes prep! And they save $$ - the average cost per serving for frozen frozen is about $2.50 less per serving than their homemade equivalents (that’s $10 saving per meal for family of 4).

I’m not saying to not cook at home. That’s a major part of our family values and rhythm. BUT, I’m saying it’s okay to take shortcuts. To preserve your mental well being. To rely on frozen food options (frozen complete meals, frozen fruits/veggies, grains, meats, etc.).

Freezing is nature’s pause button for preservation! The rapid freezing process ensures high quality taste and texture.
