Tried posting this morning but Instagram wasn’t having it 😑 but it’s never too late to say ‘Happy RDN Day!’ 🥳

There’s no doubt I chose the best career path for me. I get to talk about food/nutrition, share food with others, teach people how to cook, all while continuing to learn & connect with others 💞

I’m so thankful to have met some of my best friends during my dietetic internship at Vanderbilt, and over the years, I’ve met so many other incredibly inspiring RDNs. These are just a few of them! 😊

If you’re a dietitian and we haven’t connected yet, send me a DM! #rdnday #nationalnutritionmonth

This was my 1st time attending @natprodexpo and wow 🤯 It’s hard to imagine the scale of this show until you experience it in person. There’s just too much to pack into one post, so more to come as I sample products I brought home and continue to learn more about brands I saw at the show!

While I covered some highlights in my video recap, here are a few additional takeaways:

▫️I personally loved seeing and sampling beverages and snack bars with less sugar (and no Stevia, Monkfruit, or artificial sweeteners—I don’t like the aftertaste). One of my favorite brands is @tosisnacks. They’re sweetened with coconut nectar & are super crunchy!

▫️Most avocado oil is mixed with other oils 😔 This was very disappointing to learn but thankfully @mariannesharvest is 3rd party tested and is 100% pure avocado oil 🥑

▫️Functional mushrooms, like reishi, lion’s mane, and cordyceps, have incredible health benefits to support mood, focus, and gut health 🍄‍🟫 Fun fact: the fruiting body (aka the mushroom) and the mycelium, which grows underground, have different functions and nutrient profiles. Thanks @m2ingredients for sharing so much knowledge about functional mushrooms—excited to learn more! 🍄‍🟫

▫️As a dietitian, I found it interesting to see the influence of MAHA on products (beef tallow in more products, protein in everything—even water). As a reminder, French fries cooked in beef tallow are still French fries 🍟 While tallow has its culinary merits, swapping all vegetable oils for animal fats isn’t a shortcut to a healthier lifestyle.

▫️Convenience is king 👑 From daytime energy to sleep, to everything in between, brands are keeping convenience top of mind with new products.

What types of products have caught your attention lately? What would you like to see that you haven’t yet or….what are you tired of seeing in products?

It was great to see so many dietitians there and I highly recommend checking it out at least once!

Still waiting for the ‘Don’t eat anything before bed’ myth to die ☠️

If you feel hungry before bed, have a snack. What should it consist of? 🍌🥛🥜 Well, you can find out in this @eatingwell article written by @laurenlovesnutrition along with more tips on keeping blood sugar levels steady through the night from @weight.loss.dietitian @brittanyb.ca and @the.bloodsugar.nutritionist

Finally back with another Weekly Bite post 🍽️ and

Finally back with another Weekly Bite post 🍽️ and this time it’s a product created by fellow dietitian & chef, @michelledudash 👏👩‍🍳🔥 @spicekick.foods helps make ‘chef-seasoned’ meals possible at home. Each Spicekick meal spice kit has a recipe on the back—ready in 20 minutes or less!

I’ve tried several other Spicekick blends but this was my first time with the Sweet & Smoky Sloppy Joe! It’s been yearssss since I’ve had a sloppy joe but I loved the flavor in these (used the recipe on the back of the packet 💯).

All of the spice kits are: sodium-conscious, gluten free, and free of fillers and added sugars.

Also, can we 👏👏👏 for this beautiful packaging 😍 Highly recommend trying one of the many Spicekick kits to ‘kick up’ the flavor of your next meal!

📖 My first read of 2026–The Family Recipe by @carolynkhuynh 📚 Highly recommend, especially if you enjoy a storyline that weaves in food, culture, and family dynamics. I don’t usually post about books that I’m reading but since it’s so food-focused, figured I’d share! I could totally see this being turned into a movie 🎥

If you have any food-centric fictional reads you enjoyed, would love to hear them! A goal of mine for this year is reading one book a month 📖 #morereadinglessscrolling

It was great to be back on @daytimetvshow to talk about heart health ❤️ I shared 3 simple recipes/meal ideas from my cookbook, The Everything DASH Diet Meal Prep Cookbook, and discussed foods we can ENJOY more of to support a healthy heart!

Have you tried a savory sweet potato before? People are often surprised at just how good a roasted sweet potato can be when topped with black beans, avocado, and salsa. I promise, it’s a tasty combo!
