This is stupid easy, which is how I like it. Mix any Greek yogurt you like with or other brand Ranch Seasoning Blend (or Green Goddess works too). Dip your veggies and you’ll get a nice blend of fiber from the veggies and protein from the dip so that this snack will actually satisfy you. I’ve been known to add in some seedy crackers and chips too so then you’re really happy. Using dips and dressing is a great way to get your teenagers to eat more veggies too! Cheers!

My teenagers ask me way too often to head over to Chipotle so tonight we made our own with these DIY Chipotle bowls! Lola might be mad at me for saying this, but she was a huge help in the kitchen, which makes all the difference. Teenagers can be a huge pain in the a** in a lot of ways, but they’re old enough to be your sous chef! So that’s awesome.

We kept it super simple with chipotle-style chicken cooked on my griddle, romaine lettuce, corn, shredded cheese, and guac, and everyone built their own bowl exactly how they wanted it. Honestly, that’s the magic of meals like this.

Making food at home helps you connect to it more. Getting your kids involved in the cooking process, assembling their own meals, and actually sitting down to eat together at meals (whenever possible!) matters so much more than perfection ever will.

As a busy mom and dietitian, these are the kinds of realistic meals I love most: flexible, satisfying, protein-packed, and easy enough for actual real life. Use whatever ingredients your family loves and make it your own mama! 🥣🥣🥣🌯🌯

Now that the weather is finally turning for good, this is the perfect time to focus on moving more so LFG!

Hard truth guys but you’ve become lazy AF. It’s not entirely your fault, and I do blame the post Covid nature of our society more than ever, but still, you need to do something about.

Park farther away.
Take the stairs instead of the escalator.
Go to the actual store instead of getting a delivery every week.
Put your shopping cart back where it belongs.
Walk around the mall.
Walk around the block during a work break.
Walk the dogs.
Walk yourself.
Walk while you’re on the phone.
Walk for a few minutes instead of scrolling (or do it simultaneously be careful). Then do that again later. Yes even in the same day.
Take the longer route.

It sounds simple because it is. And those little bits of movement add up way more than you think.

One of the easiest things you can do for your physical AND mental health is simply look at your day and ask yourself: “How can I get a few more steps in?”

You don’t need to overcomplicate wellness. Your body was meant to move and you are sitting way more than you realize.

More movement. Less excuses. If you get to, do it.

Also, I literally walked to one of my neighbor’s houses to get one of her high protein cinnamon buns and ate it on the walk back home. But hey, at least I got the steps in, right?

Not that this was even presented to me today, but we were talking about breakfast in bed in my yoga class and I felt the need to talk about it. Not a fan. Ya hear that Bear?! Like maybe I’m OK with a coffee that I can take out of my bed and walk around with, but please no food. Honestly, we just wanna have some alone time because every day is Mother’s Day and that’s totally OK, this is what I signed up for. Most importantly, these holidays, although I think they’re silly, can be really hard if you lost a someone in your life or if you’re struggling to have kids or you’re just going through a rough time in any way. Life is such a series of ups and downs and polar opposites and more than ever, just try to stay present and do things that fulfill you right now. Enjoy this day and give me a thumbs up or down in the comments if you’re a breakfast in bed person (or not) like me!

Oh hey, if you don’t know me yet, I’m a dietitian and a busy stressed-out mom of teenagers (and of aging parents, hello this fun “sandwich” era), and my job is just helping people do the best they can in this chaotic world… which sometimes looks like standing in the pantry eating chocolate chips straight from the bag pretending they don’t count.

And yes, I can’t believe I have to say over and over, but this dietitian (me 👋) includes chocolate in her diet basically every single day. Because health is never ever perfection. A healthy happy life is all about doing your best, enjoying your food, and realizing maybe you’re doing better than you may think. 🍫 My mission is and always will be to help you get back to the basic consistent healthy habits that you’re probably not doing and trying to black out as much of the noise as you can because it’s getting louder and louder and we don’t need 99.9999% of the things you’re seeing on the Internet.
