If you get the ABC News Now channel, you may have caught Dana on “Good Morning America – Health” earlier this week. She talked with host Tanya Rivero about fresh foods that boost your brain. If you missed it, check out the list and watch the short segment here.
Let us know what you think!
We debuted a new blogger this week — Katie Cavuto Boyle, registered dietitian and finalist on this summer’s The Next Food Network Star. Every Sunday, Katie will offer her healthy musings (aptly titled “Katie’s Healthy Bites”). Keeping with tradition, she also filled out our fun, food-filled questionnaire. Check out her answers and give her a warm Healthy Eats welcome.
Earlier this week, I appeared on a “Role Mommy’s on the Run” segment on Blog Talk Radio. Host, Beth Feldman, and I chatted about losing weight and eating healthy in these hectic times. We reviewed some healthy snack ideas and our experiences with Wii Fit. To listen, click HERE and play the “Featured Episode” (on the middle left).
We have a superstar in our midst! Dana — as in Dana Angelo White, one of our resident experts — stars in a new series of videos on Foodnetwork.com. In them, she shares prep tips and healthy tidbits about a few of her favorite quick snacks. Her green herb hummus is on my to-try list for the weekend. And what a lovely kitchen!
Yesterday, Dana told us a few things about her food favorites. Today, Toby Amidor weighs in. And remember, these are just their fun answers; you can learn more about their nutrition credentials here.
Now, let’s meet Toby…

Look for fresh ideas every Wednesday!
Not all recipes out there come with those handy nutritional charts (and believe us, we wish we could slap them on there for you).
To help you understand how we pick recipes to feature, we wanted to share the guidelines we follow, which are based on standards from a variety of trusted sources. Our culinary and nutrition experts (that’s Dana and Toby) vet the ingredients line by and line and do their own nutritional tallies based on serving sizes. In cases where substitutions can be made to make it healthier, we share those tips, too.

Yes, the holiday season can make you easily forget about your desire to eliminate the fat. Your suggestion - Babaganoush - is a favorite because of the parsley and tahini flavor but in more general terms, it is an alternative to high calorie contemporaries.
