Honored to be featured by the Academy, on the same day I defend my doctoral dissertation 😁. Happy National nutrition month for sure!

👋 Say hello to Academy spokesperson Caroline Passerrello, MS, RDN, LDN!

🍌 Favorite way to fuel up in the morning: I start the day with a banana and espresso before a workout. After, I might have a whole-grain waffle with almond butter, oatmeal with walnuts, cereal with fruit and nuts, eggs and toast, whatever I'm in the mood for and have time to make/eat that day!

🍎 Benefits of working with a dietitian: Personalization. What you eat and why you eat it are unique to you; dietary recommendations can be tailored to your goals and a realistic plan to achieve them with the help of a registered dietitian.

🌍 Sustainability tip: Honor your hunger and fullness and start with smaller portions. If we only prepare what we can eat, we will reduce food waste and avoid the potential for eating beyond our nutrient needs.

FNCE sure does make Luciana giggle :)

The 2020 Food & Nutrition Conference & Expo is going virtual with nearly 100 educational sessions, an interactive Expo hall, lots of networking opportunities...

I've been putting Luciana to work while she and I are home together. I am thrilled that she loves food and cooking as much as I do - and she is also honest with her opinions but willing to try most things. I hope she and I inspire more kids to love cooking and more caregivers to support this!
