While it may be tempting to cook lots of comfort food to warm up on these chilly days, it’s more important than usual to lighten up meals. Remember, the basic equation…
This post was written by Tiana Yom, MPH, CHES You’ve probably noticed hues of red and pink everywhere this month, and it’s not just because of Valentine’s Day. February is also American Heart Month.

Add some zest and a kick to the familiar winter squash with this gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan-friendly chili-lime butternut squash side dish. For dinner last night I had miso-glazed arctic char, chili-lime roasted butternut squash, and roasted broccoli. The plate was balanced and the food tasted delicious.
