It's no surprise that the Mediterranean diet was ranked as the best overall diet by U.S. News & World Report for the eighth year in a row. This style of eating focuses more on fueling your body with the right foods and enjoying healthy meals with others rather than following a restrictive plan.  Listen to the latest episode of The Healthiest You podcast, where we talk about the Mediterranean diet with dietitian Alexa Roseberry with Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN), part of Jefferson Health.  Can following the Mediterranean diet make you live longer? What if you don't like fish and you aren't a fan of vegetables? How can you make healthier choices going out to eat? Which one is better – the Mediterranean diet or the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet? Are there ways to stop the post-lunch slump? We answer these questions and more on The Healthiest You podcast this month.Chapters:     · 0:01 - Intro     · 1:13 - About the Mediterranean diet     · 3:54 - Mediterranean diet pyramid     · 6:41 - Meals with others     · 10:05 - If you don't like fish or vegetables     · 12:01 - Healthy fats     · 17:14 - Meal ideas     · 18:49 - Snack ideas     · 21:12 - Dessert ideas     · 24:41 - Budget and meal planning tips     · 30:48 - Live longer on the Mediterranean diet     · 34:54 - Daily fiber intake     · 35:32 - Mediterranean diet and PCOS     · 36:42 - DASH diet vs. Mediterranean diet     · 38:52 - High-protein, low-carb diet     · 41:26 - Nutrition tips if you've had a colectomy and have an ileostomy      · 44:03 - Gaining strength back after surgery     · 47:45 - Signs you're not eating enough protein     · 49:44 - How to make healthier choices at restaurants      · 52:38 - Stop the post-lunch slump     · 54:30 - Nutrition advice

Episode 100: Reboot Your Meal PlanningWe made it to 100 episodes! Wow!! We're grateful to you all for being here and supporting our work to challenge diet culture and make family nutrition less stressful.In our latest episode, we're celebrating with a topic that comes up a lot—meal planning. But not the Pinterest-perfect kind (no judgement here if you love that kind of meal planning). Anna and I are talking about realistic, flexible planning that supports you instead of stresses you out.We share our personal routines, what “go-to meals” mean in our homes, and how diet culture can sneak into the way we think about food and planning. Whether you're a an avid list-maker or more spontaneous, there's something in here for you.What are your “go-to meals”? If you're interested in a deeper dive into all the aspects of feeding your family, from navigating sweets, meal planning, assessing your child's growth, to supporting your picky eater, join the Sunny Side Up Nutrition Membership: Take the Frenzy Out of Feeding. Links we mention in this episode:* Our Feeding Framework* Easy Black Beans and Rice* Spinach Lasagna* Sweet Potato and Black Bean Tacos* White Bean, Sausage & Kale Soup* Black Beans, Corn, and Tomatoes —A 15 minute recipe 7 different ways* Pinney Davenport Nutrition (DC Area)* Lutz, Alexander & Associates Nutrition Therapy (Raleigh, NC)* Photo by Gabrielle Henderson on UnsplashTranscriptElizabeth: Hi, Anna. So welcome, everyone. We are here today to chat about rebooting your meal planning. So, Anna, I'm just going to jump right in with the first question slash topic.Elizabeth: Feeding Framework Step #1 is to provide structure, not perfection. In our previous podcast episode, we talked about the feeding framework—and we'll link to it in the show notes in case you didn't have a chance to listen. How does that connect with our meal planning philosophy? And how does diet culture interfere with meal planning?Anna: That's two really important questions! I think a lot of people hear “meal planning” and immediately think it has to look a certain way. Like there's a right way to plan and a right way to follow the plan. A lot of folks also associate meal plans with dieting. But the way you and I think about meal planning is more about support. It's a structure that helps feeding ourselves and our families feel less chaotic.Elizabeth: Yes—exactly. I always regret it when I skip meal planning. Everything feels more chaotic.Anna: Totally. But diet culture can really mess with how we think about meal planning. On social media, you see these perfect plans that take forever to make, or these rigid schedules where every meal is pre-determined. There's this assumption that you have unlimited time and resources. But that's not how we define it. Everyone's meal plan will look different.Elizabeth: Absolutely. I mean, almost every week I end up making something different than I planned. Life happens.Anna: Yes! And one more thing—we share meal ideas every week in our Substack newsletter. Five lunches, five dinners, three breakfasts. The goal isn't to be perfect or different every day. It's to make life easier.Elizabeth: Right, we don't make seven different breakfasts every week! That sounds exhausting.Anna: We also say all the time: meal planning only needs to take 10–15 minutes. Let me walk you through what I do.Anna: I start by looking at our evening activities for the week—soccer practice, concerts, things like that. Then I plan about four dinners. I don't usually assign them to specific nights, but I try to think ahead to busy nights and plan something easy.Anna: Next, I make a list of the ingredients I need and then check the fridge, pantry, and freezer for staples—like milk, bread, eggs, lunch stuff. Then I place a grocery order online, usually on Sunday.Elizabeth: My method isn't as structured! I go to the store more often and I'm lucky to have a farmer's market nearby. I get meat, fish, and produce there in the warmer months. I also enjoy trying new recipes, so sometimes planning takes longer because I want to cook something new.Anna: That's what works for you! I'll also do a Costco or Trader Joe's run once a month. It's a big day when I do both. I joke that I've been hunting and gathering all day!Elizabeth: I feel that. And having frozen or prepared foods from those stores makes weeknights easier. I also plan four dinners and rely on my go-to meals to fill in the rest. Speaking of which—let's talk about go-to meals.Anna: A go-to meal, for me, is something I usually have the ingredients for and can make in 15–20 minutes. One of mine is Black Beans and Rice—it's super simple. We've made it for years. You use canned beans, cumin, salsa or tomatoes, and rice. Great for leftovers too.Elizabeth: Yes, for me it's similar—easy ingredients I have on hand. Everyone's go-to meals will look different. The key is they shouldn't stress you out.Anna: Exactly. We also both rely on the “cook once, eat twice” idea. If I'm making a bigger dinner on Monday, I want it to be something we can use for another night or lunches. Spinach lasagna is one—great for lunchboxes. Or grilled chicken becomes BBQ chicken salad or pizza. Everyone can build their own bowl.Elizabeth: I do something similar with black beans and corn and tomatoes. It turns into burritos, rice bowls, even a topping for chicken. We also do Sweet Potato and Black Bean Tacos—I double the batch and use the extras for bowls with pre-cooked rice.Anna: Love that. Soups and pasta dishes work well too. I like anything that helps with lunches.Elizabeth: If someone only has five minutes, what's one thing they can do this week to feel less stressed about meal planning?Anna: Make a list of your go-to meals. Just write them down—stream of consciousness. Then you can build from there and even make a list of pantry staples to keep on hand.Elizabeth: Yes! I always check my go-to list when I feel stuck. Anything else we should add?Anna: Just remember: there's no right way to do this. You don't have to make black beans and rice. Find what's easy and accessible for you.Elizabeth: So true. What are you making tonight?Anna: Actually, we have a school dinner event. But next time I cook, it'll probably be tacos. Always a favorite in my house.Elizabeth: I'm making coconut rice with roasted chicken thighs, carrots, purple broccoli from the farmers market, and a peanut sesame sauce. It's a few components, but not a ton of work. The Lundberg coconut rice is already cooked and microwaveable. (not sponsored)Anna: That sounds amazing.Elizabeth: Let us know what you're cooking! You can comment on Substack, DM us on Instagram, or email us at hello@sunnysideupnutrition.com.Both: Happy meal planning! Bye! This is a public episode.

In this episode of the Focused Healthy Family podcast, Gina and Don dive into the importance of being intentional when it comes to grocery shopping and meal planning. They explore how taking the time to plan what you need before heading to the store can reduce stress, save money, and lead to healthier choices for the whole family. From making a shopping list that reflects your actual needs, to thinking through how you're going to get to the store—whether it's with the kids in tow or after a long day—they offer practical tips for making the experience smoother. They also discuss what to do once you get the food home: organizing your kitchen, prepping ingredients, and setting yourself up for easier meals during the week. Tune in for a thoughtful conversation on how a little planning can lead to more peace, better nutrition, and less overwhelm in your daily routine. #FocusedHealthyFamily #MealPlanning #FamilyMeals #SmartShopping #HealthyHabits #ParentingTips #GroceryPlanning #KitchenOrganization #FoodPrepTips #MindfulParenting #HealthyFamilyLife #MealPrepMadeEasy #StressFreeMeals #PlanShopPrep #IntentionalLiving

Did you know that meal planning and better health are closely linked? In this special episode, I'm joined by Melissa Jaeger, Head of Nutrition at my favorite food and nutrition tracking app, MyFitnessPal.A 2017 study found that people who plan meals tend to have better diet quality and lower rates of obesity, especially women. I also share my personal journey using food tracking to transform my body composition by managing macronutrients. For me, using a diet tracking app was a game-changer. Getting real data on what you're eating can truly shift your relationship with nutrition for the long haul.Melissa walks us through the new Meal Planner feature in MyFitnessPal, which lets users build personalized weekly meal plans based on their dietary needs, budget, and household size. It generates recipes, creates grocery lists, and even integrates with e-retailers like Instacart for easy shopping.Meal planning is like setting your GPS. It helps you stay on track with your nutrition and fitness goals. Making smart food choices is a lot easier when you're not starving and scrambling. Planning ahead isn't just helpful, it's the ultimate time-saver. We often feel like we don't have time to eat right, but it's planning that actually gives us that time back.Melissa also shares her formula for a balanced, nutrient-dense plate: half fiber-rich veggies and fruits, a quarter lean protein, and a quarter carbohydrates. We dig into the myth that all carbs are bad, and highlight their essential role in providing fiber and fuel. She wraps up with her top three tips to start meal planning, including how to use the app's new feature.If you're not tracking yet, I highly recommend downloading the app and giving it a try.

If you've ever sat down to plan your food and instantly felt overwhelmed, stressed, or like you were already doing it wrong—you are not alone.

In this podcast, I talk about how meal planning can help reverse type 2 diabetes by addressing its root cause: insulin resistance. I explain that insulin resistance develops from repeated insulin spikes, which are mostly driven by the modern, carb-heavy diet. I walk you through how to swap out high-carb meals for low-carb, real food options—without giving up the flavors you love. I also share tips for eating at home and dining out, including how to plan ahead so you're not stuck guessing. If you find it hard to implement these changes, I invite you to schedule a Reverse Your Diabetes Assessment call.

Meal planning and meal prep come up again and again as one of the top time management challenges professional working women face on the personal side of life—and it makes sense. Between picking recipes, building grocery lists, shopping, and then actually making the meals, it's a lot—and it happens every single week. In this episode, I'm joined by Allison Schaaf, a registered dietitian, trained chef, and the founder of Prep Dish, a meal planning service designed to reduce the time and mental load that come with feeding yourself and your family. If you've ever wished for an option that hits the middle ground between a full meal kit delivery and figuring it all out on your own, this might be it. In this conversation, we dig into: why meal planning is such a universal time management pain point, especially for working parents how to simplify and systematize it so it's not something you reinvent every week practical strategies for tackling both meal planning and prep in realistic ways (especially if cooking isn't your thing) different ways to involve your kids so they're more likely to actually eat the food you make the behind-the-scenes of Prep Dish and how it helps people reduce the invisible workload that comes with meals—without going all the way to fully outsourced kits how to use your calendar to support and protect your meal planning time and how Allison built this company after working as a personal chef and seeing what worked in real life Whether you love cooking and just want to lighten the lift—or you're trying to get through dinner without a meltdown (yours or someone else's)—this conversation offers great ideas and an option you may not have known existed.

Today's topic is from my client Krista. She asked:"I was just curious if you think I need someone to help me with meal planning. I am so type A that everything I hear about health and wellness I take to the T and then I am constantly worrying about my protein (eating good fat, but not too much; not avoiding carbs - eating more veggies, choosing the fiber rich carbs). All of this is good, but I feel like I over-stress about it so much that I don't even listen to my body and how it feels! In your opinion, what do I really need to dial in as far as nutrition while I am trying to heal my gut?"Krista's question comes on the heels of having made some great improvements in her health and symptoms such as having more energy in afternoon, being able to function perfectly with NO coffee/caffeine, bloating being down, distention is 50% better, and being able to fall asleep MUCH faster through the night.

When most people start homesteading, they jump straight to the fun stuff—sourdough, chickens, herbal remedies. But here's the truth: If your kitchen isn't in rhythm, everything else feels harder.

She breaks down her no-fuss approach to meal planning, with practical tips like how to batch-prep ingredients, save time with frozen veggies, and get creative with leftovers (hint: they don't have to feel like leftovers!). Whether you're feeding your own kids or hundreds of children in your program, you'll walk away with ideas to streamline meals and reduce mealtime stress.   Brian and Carol also dive into common challenges child care leaders face when it comes to feeding themselves well—including how we often plan months ahead for our child care menus but completely wing it at home.
