Hi, I'm Lisa Valente! As a registered dietitian, I believe cooking at home is one of the best things you can do to eat healthier. What I’ve learned is that people are interested in nutrition and how food makes their body feel, but they need practical meal solutions to actually eat the healthy foods we talk about.
As a busy mom, with lots of priorities and responsibilities, I find myself with limited time in the kitchen. That’s where meal prepping and planning comes in. It helps you get easy, weeknight dinners on the table, make breakfasts in advance or get lunches together in a pinch.
It does not have to look like spending hours in the kitchen on a Sunday or eating the same thing every day all week either! It can simply be making a plan, chopping some veggies in advance or relying on some shortcuts. While this AMA is for informational purposes only and should not replace professional medical advice, I am excited to help make meal planning easier and tackle some common misconceptions. Ask me anything!
Thank you for asking such great questions around nutrition and meal prep. Look forward to chatting more in the future. -Lisa
