Comment “CONGEE” and we’ll send you the recipe for this soothing rice porridge 🍚

Congee is a traditional rice porridge made by slowly cooking rice with extra water until it becomes soft, creamy, and easy to digest.

Because of its gentle texture and mild flavor, it can be especially helpful for individuals experiencing low appetite, digestive sensitivity, or recovery from illness, surgery, or cancer treatment.

It can be enjoyed plain or customized with simple additions like ginger or scallions, depending on individual tolerance. Sometimes, simple and soothing foods are exactly what the body needs.

Comment TASTE and we’ll send you a chart with simple ideas that may help with taste changes during or after treatment.

Taste changes can occur during chemotherapy, radiation, or with certain medications. Foods may taste sweeter, saltier, more bitter, or simply different than usual.

Small adjustments to flavor can sometimes help make meals more enjoyable.

For example:
• If food tastes too sweet or salty, try adding lemon juice.
• If foods taste bitter, a small amount of sweetness may help balance the flavor.

Keeping simple ingredients like lemons, salt and honey nearby can make it easier to adjust flavors while eating.

Comment SEASONAL and we’ll send you our recipe page with simple ideas using seasonal produce for inspiration 🌿

In the Pacific Northwest, late February is still winter, which means we’re seeing a variety of grounding, nutrient-dense produce that works especially well in warm, balanced meals.

Some produce that is typically in season includes:
- Kale
- Brussels sprouts
- Cabbage
- Leeks
- Turnips
- Parsnips
- Sunchokes
- Potatoes
- Mushrooms
- Apples (storage crops)
- Pears (storage crops)

As Gretchen Gruender, MS, RD often emphasizes, seasonal produce can be a practical way to add variety, flavor, and nutritional value to everyday meals without making things complicated.

Simple ways to use seasonal produce:
✔️ Roasted vegetable bowls
✔️ Nourishing soups and stews
✔️ Warm grain bowls
✔️ Sautéed greens and simple sides

Small, intentional choices — like incorporating seasonal produce — can help support balanced, nourishing meals throughout the season.

Comment “CUCUMBER” and we’ll send you the full recipe.

This month Yotam Ottolenghi is coming to Seattle and in honor of everything he has done to inspire delicious, healthy recipes we want to highlight this cucumber salad from his cookbook, Flavor.

Cucumbers provide hydration and fiber, making them a great option when you want something fresh and easy to digest. Tahini adds healthy fats and plant-based calcium to support satiety.

We marinate the cucumbers first to enhance flavor and slightly soften the texture, then fold them into a creamy tahini dressing and finish with green onions and sesame seeds.

This salad is hydrating, nutrient-dense, and a simple way to support balanced nutrition. But most importantly, it’s delicious!

As an oncology dietitian, here are 3 important things I want people to be aware of after cancer treatment:

1️⃣ Muscle loss is common during treatment.
This is a powerful time to build your support team and gently focus on rebuilding strength in a way that feels safe and sustainable.

2️⃣ Low energy has many possible causes.
Fatigue isn’t always “just part of recovery.” Working with the right professional can help identify underlying factors and create a plan that truly supports your energy.

3️⃣ The end of treatment isn’t the end of the journey.
It’s simply the end of one phase. This next chapter is an opportunity to explore what helps you feel stronger, more nourished, and more like yourself again.

Healing doesn’t stop when treatment ends—it evolves. 💛

Losing weight—and keeping it off—isn’t a quick fix, which is why dietitians focus on making sustainable changes. Here are three ways to start approaching weight-related goals with more support and intention:

There are always root causes behind why weight can be difficult to lose and maintain. Identifying underlying barriers is the best place to start.

Explore your relationship with food. What motivates you to eat? Do you eat only when you’re hungry? This awareness matters.

Build in regular movement. Food changes alone aren’t enough—consistent movement supports both physical and mental health.

The holidays don’t have to be rushed or overwhelming.
They can be a moment to pause, breathe, and reconnect with nourishment — not just through food, but through presence, intention, and care.

This season, we’re honoring mindful eating by slowing down in the kitchen, noticing textures, warmth, and flavor, and creating space to truly enjoy the moment.

Happy Holidays — wishing you health, nourishment, and gentleness this season. 🤍
