Confessions of a ginger junky
Contrary to popular belief, many dietitians (like myself), do not spend their entire lives prepping and planning meals. While we may peruse the grocery store a bit longer than the average bear, we like short cuts just as much as the next shopper. We’re busy wives and...

Forgotten chicken
If you're a working parent, you recognize that some weeks, the bottom just falls out. Maybe your kid started a new sport and you're running him/her to practice right around dinner time. Or you have meetings every other night of the week. This is what happened in our...

Dessert hummus review
There's a push to eat more "pulses" (read beans, lentils) because they are so damn good for your gut and heart in addition to being convenient and easy on the wallet. Beans are loaded with fiber, especially the soluble type that lowers blood cholesterol, helps manage...

Realistic goal setting
We're two months into 2018, the time of year when everyone is either into a groove of new habits or have completely given up. If you're having trouble motivating yourself to reach the goal you set out for yourself (weight loss, more water, fill in the blank...), maybe...

Soup tips!
Despite the recent warm up in temperatures, I still consider February to be soup season. In all honesty, I eat soup almost year-round with the exception of July and August when the temps rise above 90 in Cincinnati. I have picked up a few tricks to making soup faster...

What to cook in a bare minimum kitchen
I take my kitchen for granted. Last year, I turned 50 and decided that what I really wanted for my birthday was an upgrade in appliances. We spend the majority of time in our kitchen, so this was the equivalent of new furniture to me. Our dishwasher with the...

What to do when your child decides to be vegetarian
I’ll admit, as a dietitian and fairly decent cook, I figured it would be no big deal when my 12-year old daughter decided to become vegetarian this year. She’d been on the fence about it for a while, so my husband and I knew it was coming. She voiced being “grossed...

Vegan black bean chili
This simple recipe is not only quick, but very healthy. Beans provide a hefty dose of belly-filling fiber as well as protein, potassium, folate and magnesium. In addition, adding tomatoes or bell peppers (high in vitamin C) increases the bioavailability (absorption)...

Kale apple salad with feta cheese and pistachios in orange dressing
This seasonal salad will become a favorite among your guests. Kale is one of my favorite greens to toy with. Did you know that eating just 1-2 servings of leafy greens may improve your memory? To improve the texture of kale, place it in a Ziplock bag after cleaning...

Steel cut oats with ginger & almonds
I've had a cylinder of steel cut oats in my pantry for months, but had not used it due to sheer laziness. Steel cut oats are meant for a weekend breakfast when you've got a little extra time to sip coffee and let them cook. The beautiful thing about them though, is...

Lisa Andrews is Nutrigirl!
I’ve paired my love of food, science and people by becoming a Registered Dietitian. My nickname Nutrigirl started about 20 years ago when I needed an email account. Having a painfully long, Italian last name didn’t lend well to an email address, and so Nutrigirl was born. I’d be lying if I said I am “mild mannered”. Outgoing by nature, my friends and clients know I’m not going to sugar coat my nutrition advice. With so much food and health information out there (good and bad), Nutrigirl is your nutrition hero. I’m here to provide sound, nutrition advice, while making sure you are enjoying your food! When I like a health article, recipe or nutrition-related advice, I will stamp it #Nutrigirlapproved.
Snickers
We knew after adopting Snickers in July, 2014 that she was no ordinary kitty. She is a tortoise cat and has “tortitude”. Snickers is a true foody and always in the kitchen at meal time. Despite her candy bar name, Snickers literally reaches for kale, spinach and broccoli when we’re prepping it. Snickers likes a challenge and will seek hydration from the sink, toilet or your water glass. If she likes what you’re making (or eating), she’ll give you the “high paw” and you know your recipe is #Snickersapproved.
