It took me a very long time to like fish in general; I didn't start eating it regularly until my 20s. I've been recommending sardines to my patients for years because of their incredible omega-3 and protein content. So, I was determined to find a way to make them work for me. I've actually discovered two ways that I can not only eat sardines but also find them somewhat tasty.

As a Naturopathic Doctor and a mom, I understand the challenges of feeding a little one with dietary restrictions. When my son needed to avoid dairy and eggs, I embarked on a quest to find wholesome, nutritious, and delicious foods that would support his growth and development. Through trial and error (and a lot of taste-testing!), I discovered a few favorite products and staples that made our journey a whole lot easier.

Are you tired of sugary smoothies that leave you feeling sluggish and craving more? This Whole Food Protein Shake is a game-changer! It's packed with fresh, real ingredients, healthy fats, and potent antioxidants to keep your blood sugars stable and energy levels high. No more mid-morning crashes or afternoon slumps! This shake is part of my 10-Day Jump Start program, designed to help you lose weight and feel amazing. But even if you're not on the program, this shake is a fantastic way to nourish your body and power through your day.

Navigating food allergies can be a challenging journey for parents, especially when trying to introduce new foods or ensure your little one gets all the necessary nutrients. But it's also an opportunity to get creative in the kitchen! These Savory Veggie Muffins are a perfect example – they're packed with wholesome ingredients, including eggs, making them ideal for toddlers who have passed their baked-egg challenge.

As a parent, finding quick, healthy, and balanced meals that my little one will actually eat can feel like searching for a unicorn. That's why I love these Middle Eastern Lentil Kale Quinoa Burgers! They pack a punch of protein, veggies, healthy fats, and fiber, all in one delicious and easy-to-eat package.

Are you looking for a quick, healthy, and mess-free meal that your toddler will devour? This "No Cheese, Please!" Mac and Cheese is the answer! It's packed with veggies, creamy without any dairy, and perfect for little hands to grab and enjoy.

Is your little one a picky eater? Mine too! But these oat pancakes are a guaranteed hit in our household. They're so delicious, my son practically snatches them off the plate before I can even set it down. And the best part? They're packed with nutrients and super easy to make.

Looking for a fun and healthy treat to beat the heat? These Yummy Tummy Smoothie Pops are packed with essential nutrients, making them the perfect snack for both kids and adults. Not only are they delicious and refreshing, but they're also rich with vitamins, minerals, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids – all in one easy-to-grab frozen treat!

Are you looking for a baby-led weaning recipe that's packed with nutrients and easy for little hands to manage? Or perhaps you're simply craving a healthy, flavorful meatball that's a bit out of the ordinary? Look no further than these spinach and barley meatballs!
