đź“Ł New Nutrition Series!

Hi! I am the Registered Dietitian, Beth-Anne Oliver, that is employed at the Clarion-Forest VNA ( CFVNA), a new series on the CFVNA website and FB page will include such things as recipes, a discussion about various topics: healthy eating on a budget, building a healthy food pantry on a budget, and healthy eating with little cooking., and possible cooking demos.

I will be using myplate.gov, Dietary Guidelines for Americans / health.gov, and the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics as references for my information. Myplate.gov has some helpful information concerning saving money at the supermarket: Make a plan, shop smart, and prepare healthy meals.

Before going to the supermarket, build that plan in the form of a menu. This menu could be in the form of a grocery list game plan (MyPlate.gov).

I have a recipe to share with you: Garden Vegetable Soup

Happy food preparation. This recipe may become more tasting as the spring/summer/ fall harvest continues from your garden.

If you have any topic of interest or would like to ask about our dietary services, contact us and ask for your message to be directed to our Dietitian.
