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 @caro 📖 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

Each year, I choose a different word to focus on, Each year, I choose a different word to focus on, both in my personal & professional life. For 2025, my word was JOY because as I continued to grow my business, I wanted to intentionally choose work that I enjoyed, work with people who bring joy, and have fun along the way! Looking back on the year, I’m feeling that joy and also immense gratitude—for friends, family, and colleagues. Thank you for making 2025 a memorable and joyful year 💗

For 2026, my word is Connect 🤝I want to focus on building moments of deeper connection, and supporting friends, colleagues, clients by making helpful connections to better support them. 

Do you choose a word or intention for the year? Would love to hear some if you’d like to share! Wishing you a very happy new year 🎊
Back again with another Weekly Bite 🍽️, sharing a Back again with another Weekly Bite 🍽️, sharing a ‘new-to-me’ packaged product that I’ve tried and how I’ve used it!

This week, it’s @amylufoods Italian-style Chicken Meatballs! We ❤️ Costco and initally found Amylu Foods there. We’ve tried several different products from them but last week was our first time trying this flavor. Like all the other meatball flavors we’ve tried so far from Amylu Foods, these were very flavorful! Whenever I use a pre-made meatball like this, I cut them in half and sear them to give a little texture & color on the outside 🍝 

🌟 Nutrition tip: add veggies like mushrooms, spinach, onions, etc. to boost the fiber & nutrition value of your spaghetti dish! 

There’s 3 servings per package so with the remaining meatballs we had, I made soup with veggies we already had on hand + a homemade tomato sauce made from our garden tomatoes this summer 🍅 Delicious 💯 

How would you use Italian-style chicken meatballs? Have you tried any of the @amylufoods products?
