A huge thank you to Elmira Tandoori Grill for a fantastic dinner. So much flavour and so many good spices!!! Don't forget our local restaurants! They still need our support. #eatlocal #woolwich

This beauty of a salad is brought to you by the most delightful, fresh, organically & locally grown greens around from Maryhill Organic! #springiscoming #eatrealfood #eatmoregreens #eatlocal

May I just say that we live in a pretty amazing small town? I am so grateful for local shops like @kitchenkuttings & @localrenaissance for filling shopping bag, my cup and my soul with local goods and friendly faces and conversation. #shoplocal #elmiranutritionist #eatlocal #smalltownlove #woolwich

Its a good day when...

Christmas 2020 was a success. While it wasn't what any of us expected last year at this time, we are having a great time relaxing, playing games and just being together. Oh, and the cinnamon rolls were a hit! #newtraditions #familyfirst

Pressure cookers? Are they worth the hype?

Ain't that the truth... #2020 #homefortheholidays

Take a peek at my latest article in the Rural Post. It is all about tackling the takeout dilemma. How do you make takeout something to look forward while supporting local businesses, rather than a knee-jerk reaction to dinner time indecisiveness? Thanks to @nethyme.elmira for making tonight's dinner a fantastic meal to look forward to! It was delicious, plentiful and filled with colour! This nutritionist was delighted with all of the veggies! Check out their Wicked Wednesday specials!

While this year does feel different in so many ways, my wish for you it to find peace and comfort this holiday season...and maybe even start a few new traditions. Update to my quest to start a Christmas morning cinnamon roll tradition. I now have the recipe in hand and all the ingredients ready to go. Wish me luck! Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas!

From this...to this. I've found the best way to store broth is using a large muffin tin to make frozen pucks of broth for whenever I need them. Homemade broth is obviously great in soups, but it is also amazing to cook your rice and quinoa in. Add a little nutritional bang and a tasty zip to your dishes. #elmiranutritionist #eatrealfood #glutenfree #dairyfree

Veggie broth making at its finest. I usually make chicken or beef broth, but I thought it was time to let the veggies shine! The kitchen is smelling so delicious and rich with the veggie broth, that I think it will become a part of the regular rotation. #elmiranutritionist #eatrealfood #glutenfree #dairyfree

Have you ever really stopped to listen to how you talk or even think about food? Have you ever eaten a decadent piece of cake and then felt bad about it? What about a bag of chips that you vowed to only have a couple of and then discover your hand in an empty bag? What about the day that you chose a salad for lunch? How did that make you feel about yourself as a person? Do you need some help this season saying goodbye to food guilt? Click below for a little inspiration from me. You've got this and I am here to cheer you on! https://designedforyounutrition.com/say-goodbye-to-food-gu/

It is at this time of the year, especially that I think about our family traditions. From my family to yours, here is a special tradition that I was introduced to a few years ago...

Looking for a warm soup to fill your belly? Look no further than Waterloo Region's very own Rural Post. May I also say that it is an absolute honour to share the page with a beautiful tribute to the brave souls who sacrificed so that we can live in freedom. I remember...

Oh boo! See that black fuzzy stuff at the top of the photo? My sour dough starter began growing a little something extra. Even though I wasn't able to bake a loaf today as I had hoped, I didn't have to start completely from scratch. Since the mold was only at the neck of the jar, I was able to save some of the starter and keep going in a new jar. A good sour dough cannot be rushed and it will be worth the wait! #elmiranutritionist #eatrealfood #glutenfree #sourdoughstarter #sourdough

Update on my gluten free sour dough starter. Things are looking...and smelling like I will be eating a fresh loaf of sourdough sometime this weekend!!! #sourdough #sourdoughstarter #elmiranutritionist #eatrealfood #glutenfree

This information so interesting to me and has the potential to help so many. I'm excited that this is becoming main stream thinking.

Need some supper time inspiration? This recipe was recommended by a dear friend & it was fantastic!!! It is a little bit time consuming, but totally worth the extra effort.
