I’m an MD who loves to cook and feed my family. I write globally-inspired recipes and food matters; what you wish your family MD had time to tell you to eat for long life and raise healthy kids.
Lots of recipes and time-saving strategies to help solve the challenges of dinner and make healthy meals exciting
More plants, more fish, less meat…for families crunched for time and struggling with picky eaters, the diet shift  we know we should make for health and our planet is hard to do and hard to stick with.
Lots of advice can be had for healthier eating, but rarely found is realistic insight focused on transition for most eaters, that includes meat-eaters, ethnic food lovers, and take-out junkies.
I’m an MD now retired after years caring for cancer patients in Boston teaching hospitals. No one enjoys sharing a good meal and a bottle of wine with friends more than I do.
My research experience allows me to digest the data for you while I offer strategies to apply in your kitchen. There are plenty of healthy eating books but few guiding how to establish priorities and gain skills to make healthy eating positive and viable while juggling your work life and family needs.
Diet shift can be about what is creatively possible and not feel restrictive. Rethinking eating opens up a world of opportunity to experiment and push the boundaries of your usual standby meals. A little food knowledge, both culinary and nutrition knowhow, with real commitment can get you to a place where you and your family can eat healthy and love the food you eat.
