Breakfast

Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you had a wonderfully fun and delicious holiday season and are already off to a great start for 2019! It’s been a while since I’ve shared any recipes on here, and I thought I’d start the first Monday of the new year off on the right (productive) foot. My […]

Would you say that you’re a sweet or savory breakfast person? I used to say I was Team Savory all the way, but lately I’ve been really into my sweeter leaning yogurt bowls in the morning. Now, just because I’ve been having more sweet breakfasts lately does not mean that my attention to nutrition has […]

Weekends filled with visitors, city explorations, and delicious eats are what summers are all about in my opinion. Then Sunday night rolls around, and while my heart and belly are full and happy, the work week lies ahead and I start to think of how to get back into my routine. Part of the routine for […]

I don’t think there is anything I love more than breakfast. And I especially love making or hunting down a great breakfast sandwich. So when this month’s Recipe Redux asked us to show off a sandwich creation, you can bet the gears of my breakfast brain got spinning! When it comes to making a sandwich, […]

If you know a little about me, you know that one of my favorite things in the world is the arrival of soft, fuzzy peaches at the farmers markets in the summer months. So, you can imagine I am squealing with excitement over here- it’s peach season! Snack time is a bit messier these days […]

If you can’t already tell from my Insta feed, let me make it known that I’m a pretty big fan of breakfast. To be a cliche, it really is the most important meal of the day for me and I just don’t feel right without it. It’s even become the meal I enjoy planning for […]

Today is March 14th, so math nerds, rejoice- it’s 3.14 or Pi Day! I’m celebrating today, not because I am a math nerd (I actually HATED math as kid), but because it’s also a snow day here in NYC and I’m spending the day in the kitchen whipping up some yummy recipes. While I may […]

My readers and patients alike have frequently heard me talk about quick and easy meal ideas, especially breakfasts. After all, breakfast really is found to be one of the most important meals of the day as it is associated with reduced risk of overweight and obesity (Szajewska & Ruszczynski 2010); better glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, […]

Happy Friday! I especially love Fridays in the fall. Walking to dinner at 7 PM when it’s already dark out and there’s a crisp breeze in the air is one of my favorite things about Fall Fridays in New York. But cozying into a sweater after the work week with a glass of red wine, […]

I love banana bread. I love it clean and classic, studded with chocolate chips, swirled with cinnamon, “healthified” with dried fruit and nuts…the list goes on! I like to enjoy it in the morning with a smear of warm butter for breakfast or even as dessert in place of a heavier and more sinful slice […]
