March is National Nutrition Month- a nutrition education and information campaign created annually in March by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics to focus attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating habits.
The 2013 NNM Theme is “Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day”.
Now this doesn’t mean “eat whatever you want.” This means, take the steps to eat right. Take control of your nutrition, whether you’re cooking for a family or cooking for one. Take control of your choices while you’re on the go or at work- stay away from the vending machine or the candy-jar temptations and stock your desk or briefcase with healthy and satisfying options.
I’ve put together some of my go-to-tips for cooking for one as well as tackling typical on-the-run or office-related eating issues. So take control of your nutrition- and “Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day.”
