Need Practical Healthy Eating Resources for Families!

I really want to connect the nutrition and healthy lifestyle professional to the average family.  Often times I see a disconnect because some of the recommendations are unrealistic to families, or they are not followed up with the "how" to implement.  The key component to any connection is summed up in one word: P-R-A-C-T-I-C-A-L.  You see, I am educated as a Registered Dietitian and am extremely passionate about my profession, but I am also a mother trying to make it happen despite our very busy lives.  I tell families that they must make it a priority to feed your family well, and while that is certainly true, we also need easier ways to get it done in order to meet those goals.  Don't you agree?

This Mommy Dieitian project brings
new meaning to "Will Work For Food!"

That is why I am starting a very important project that I know you will be excited about.  The details will be announced in the near future.  But what I am looking for is this - Do you know of a practical resource out there that will help families eat healthy?  It could be a food product, a book, a website, a blog or even a place.  Whatever it is, I want to know about it! 

My goal for this blog is NOT to monetize, and professionally, I do not want to be paid by food companies or organizations that will make me appear biased in my recommendations to others.  I am the advocate for the child and family.  If I like something, I will let everyone know.  It's that simple!  This blog has not been up and running very long and I've already been approached by many people to review and recommend their products.  I'd love to do so, but I want to be honest and transparent in my views about those products.  There is my disclaimer.

So, please.  Send me your favorite resources!!  The gathering process is off to a great start.  I plan to use them in a way that children, mothers, fathers and families as a whole will benefit from - just wait and see!  By the way, if you have not already done so, please join the Mommy Dietitian Facebook fan page.  This page is a already a fan of many possible resources for families, and the fan pages will be growing.  As I am gathering resources, I will blog about some that I am extra excited about.  Thanks in advance for the help!
