A registered dietitian can help you plan healthier meals.  Work with a dietitian one-on-one with convenient virtual visits.

• Add 1/2 can pumpkin puree and a dash of cocoa powder to your chili recipe to thicken the sauce and add a depth of flavor.
• Add drained, rinsed canned chickpeas and roasted pumpkin seeds to salads for added protein,  fiber and magnesium.
• Combine cooked chickpea pasta with fire roasted tomatoes, great northern beans, parmesan cheese and spinach.  Top with a little pesto sauce.
• Make overnight oats with pumpkin puree, cinnamon, vanilla protein powder and pecans.
