Hannah here! If youâve ever wondered how a functional dietitian shops at Whole FoodsâŚthis is it đâ¨â
â
And because the reel couldnât fit everything, here are a few more staples that made it into my cart:â
â
⢠Kevinâs Paleo Orange Chickenâ
⢠Jovial brown rice pastaâ
⢠Freshly ground raw peanut butterâ
⢠Raoâs brick oven uncured pepperoni frozen pizzaâ
⢠Organic frozen dark sweet cherries (365 brand)â
â
When I shop, Iâm thinking about building meals that support blood sugar, digestion, and energy...â
â
That usually looks like:â
âď¸ Tons of fruits and veggies for fiber, phytonutrients + prebioticsâ
âď¸ Easy protein optionsâ
âď¸ Healthy fatsâ
âď¸ A few convenience foods to make real life easierâ
â
Curious if you love any of the same brands as me? Share your favorites below đâ

You donât need to track fiber grams all day to hit your goal.â
â
Instead, aim for ~10 grams of fiber per meal.â
â
Thatâs it.â
No calculator. No overthinking.â
â
When your meals are built this way, hitting ~30g/day happens automatically. Once you`re familiar with 10-gram-fiber-meals, you won`t even have to think about it!â
â
Today, we`re giving you 2 full days of meals (with recipes) that each land right around that 10g mark, so you can see exactly what it looks like in real life.â
â
Save this for easy meal inspiration đ¤â

If youâre reading labels on your food⌠but not your skincare, youâre missing a huge piece of the puzzle.â
â
Your skin absorbs more than you think, and many conventional products are packed with synthetic fillers and hormone-disrupting fragrances.â
â
Thatâs why we choose non-toxic products that actually nourish from the outside in. â¨â

Have you ever scrolled through recipe after recipe⌠and still couldnât decide what will actually work?â
â
âthis is how Sam decides đâ
â
She keeps it simple with 3 non-negotiables:â
â
1ď¸âŁ Does it have protein, fiber, and healthy fat?â
In this recipe from @therealfooddietitians: ground beef and black beans + veggies like zucchini, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, peppers + avocado or avocado oilâ
đ this combo = staying full + balanced blood sugar â
â
2ď¸âŁ Is it made with mostly whole foods?â
If itâs packed with processed ingredients⌠itâs a no. Weâre aiming for meals that reduce inflammation, not add to it.â
â
3ď¸âŁ Can I make it in 30 minutes or less?â
Because letâs be honestâno one wants a 2-hour recipe after a long day.â
Look for: one-pot, skillet, crockpot, or sheet pan meals đâ
â
Save this for the next time youâre scrolling for recipes đ¤â

Harryâs story is one of those reminders that itâs not always about doing more⌠itâs about doing the right things for your body.â
â
â
When he started, his A1C was in the diabetic range. Less than a year after meeting with me, his dietitian, Madelyn?â
đ 30 pounds downâ
𩸠A1C back to NORMAL (not even pre-diabetic anymore!)â
â
â
One of his biggest lightbulb moments was realizing that even the order you eat your food can impact blood sugar...Eating vegetables and protein before carbohydrates and starches can lower post-meal blood sugar and insulin spikes by up to 75%!â
â
â
I enjoyed working with Harry because of his open-mindedness to this sort of information. He was willing to try new approaches and trusted the process, which made it easy to build something that truly worked for him.â
â
â
What I love most about Harryâs journey is that it fits his real life.â
Pickleball, gym days with his girlfriend, a go-to breakfast he actually enjoys, and simple ways to manage stress (like cardio or even cleaning the house).â
â
â
And his why? His loved ones. â¤ď¸â
â
â
His advice says it all:â
âBe kind and donât stress the things you canât control.ââ
â
â
If your blood sugar levels and weight won`t go down despite your efforts, maybe there`s a missing piece? Let us help you find it đââď¸â

In the pursuit of happiness, the path is surprisingly straightforward: compassion. đâ
â
Compassion isn`t just an emotion; it`s a practice, a muscle we strengthen with intentional action. It`s about genuinely seeing the suffering within ourselves and then actively offering warmth, patience, and care to that tender place. â
â
When we extend compassion inward, we soften the inner critic, regulate our nervous system, and create the safety we need to grow, transforming mistakes into lessons and pressure into presence. đŤâ

I normally follow recipes, but when it comes to salads, I love being creative! Follow this formula and choose ingredients in each category to make a strong salad worth calling a meal.â
â
Every category is intentional â from your base to your protein to your flavor boost â and every ingredient is chosen with phytochemicals, fiber, and flavor in mind.â
â
One thing people don`t realize: Fat-free or low-fat dressing is actually working against you. Many of the most powerful nutrients in your salad, including the phytochemicals in all those colorful vegetables, are fat-soluble. That means your body can only absorb them when fat is present. No fat, no absorption. You`re essentially eating the nutrients without getting the benefit. So don`t skip this step!â
â
Save this when you go grocery shopping OR use it to create a salad with what you have on hand in the fridge.â
â
đ I`m sending this as a PDF, along with our RD`s top 3 favorite salad recipes, in our next email. If you`re not on that email list, comment EMAIL to be added. We send valuable free resources, not just sales emails ;)â

1ď¸âŁ Meal Rotation: Be ruthless about what stays on your list. If you see it on the menu and dread it, take it off the rotation! (Or ask yourself what specifically you donât like and fix that). Of course, not everyone will like every meal on your list, but you can tweak for picky eaters (deconstructed meals with all ingredients separate, keep their portion unsauced, ensure thereâs one side they will eat). Honestly, itâs most important for the COOK to enjoy all the meals. â
â
2ď¸âŁ Grocery Pick-up: I used to have to go into the store all the time for items they said were âmissing,â or Iâd get bad produce or they would completely not include certain items. This process has drastically improved over the past couple years. I occasionally shop in the store for a couple items, but can no longer fathom going in for a big trip. â
â
3ď¸âŁ Planned Breaks: I know this one is tricky if you donât have a spouse. But I emphasize the word âPLANNEDâ. Plan the nights youâll do carryout, leftovers or simple no-cook mealsâŚdonât just use them as last-minute emergencies. This way youâll know a break is coming. Secondly, if you do have a spouse, youâll need to let them do it THEIR way. That means accepting that the meal may not meet your qualifications or preferences. Not cooking Friday-Sunday also gives me time and motivation to bake muffins or prep other items for the week (if I feel like it). Meal planning and ordering groceries on a day you`re not cooking makes it less daunting.â
â
4ď¸âŁ Focus on What Matters: For me, a cilantro-heavy fresh salsa just the way I like it will MAKE an entire meal. And I have that salsa all week to add to my veggie omelets at breakfast or whatever hodge-podge bowl I create for lunch. The extra time it takes, for me, is worth it. I encourage you to notice what makes a difference for YOU!â
â
Itâs a marathon, not a sprint. Cooking for a family over the years can feel daunting, but being intentional about what keeps you going is what makes it sustainable.â
