This is good news and a great start! I hope this is momentum forward and others follow suit!

Eli Lilly announced today that it will cut the list prices for its most commonly prescribed insulins, including Humalog and Humulin, by 70%! The drug maker will also expand a program that caps out-of-pocket insulin costs for patients at $35 per month. This is a huge win for people living with Diabetes everywhere.

Happy Friday! Shout out to Siete Family Foods awesome customer service! I bought a bag of chips that were past their prime. To replace it (and then some) they sent me this fun box of treats! I have been a fan of their chips but did not know about their seasoning mixes. Looking forward to trying them!

For those who need to be gluten free (I do not, just love the flavor), Siete brand is an option for ya!

Roasted carrots with za’atar, cilantro feta and toasted pumpkin seeds. Yum!

Thank you for this easy tasty recipe!

Made this for Easter dinner but this will be in the rotation for weekday meals.

Roasted veggies are a staple in my house but I was tired of the same roasted carrots with the same warm spices (cumin,paprika etc). Needed to change it up!

This simple mix of ingredients makes it feel like springtime with greens and a crunch.
You will love it!

Happy Monday! Last month marked 15 years since I opened my private nutrition practice. 🎉😃
I am beyond grateful to be doing a job that I truly love, assisting individuals in improving their health and relationship with food.

My office provides a peaceful space to connect with clients. I am passionate about helping people become more excited about food while presenting information and options in a practical, flexible way.

One of my favorite things to do is help people with all-or-nothing rules and mindsets. I would be happy to help you discover this for yourself!

2022 brings exciting changes! I am now in-network with Blue Shield and Health Net. I have been a Medicare Provider for years and continue to accept new clients who have Medicare and many Medicare advantage plans. Many insurance companies cover nutrition visits 100% under preventive benefits. Please contact me to discuss if your plan covers my services!

Have a great week!
