SLOW COOKED BEANS

SLOW COOKED BEANS by Stacy @Nutrition as Nature Intended

He would always cook large pots of beans, make homemade burritos with them and freeze the burritos to eat later for meals or snacks. He recognized that dried beans are much less expensive and healthier…

SEARED LAMB CHOPS AND BONUS CHIMICHURRI SAUCE by Stacy @Nutrition as Nature Intended

PagesSEARED LAMB CHOPS AND BONUS CHIMICHURRI SAUCEMany people assume that because I am into nutrition, I am a vegetarian...not true at all! I love eating fish, poultry and meat.

AUTUMN SQUASH SALAD

AUTUMN SQUASH SALAD by Stacy @Nutrition as Nature Intended

It is officially fall! And while vitamin-richsquashes are showing up in the markets, it doesn’t quite feel like autumn outside. Global warming is messing with my seasonal eating!

Ice Cream Truffles

Ice Cream Truffles by Stacy @Nutrition as Nature Intended

I get a lot of questions about dessert. A LOT. And just because I am a nutritionist doesn't mean I don't love sweets because I certainly do! I have just learned to adopt a harm reduction approach that includes desserts with whole food ingredients, which I eat in limited quantities. One of my good friends loves my homemade ice cream…
