I get it: we’re all busy…and sometimes, quite rightly, meal prep is not at the top of our priority list. But, what if you’re really feeling stuck in a food rut?

As a dietitian, I know that food ruts can suck the enjoyment out of healthy eating…so let’s break out!

Sometimes, all you need is someone to spark an idea, or shine a light on a kitchen hack - or ultra-delicious food - that you immediately know you need in your life…so I’m talking with my friend and colleague Michelle Jaelin RD all about her transition from cooking for two to cooking for four, easy ways to make basic meals more exciting and a few new amazing foods to pick up to shake up your eating routine.
