As a dietitian and television host, my days are busy and often unpredictable.
Whether I am meeting a client or running around Charleston sourcing ingredients and props for TV, making healthy choices always remains my utmost priority. Doing so allows me to feel like best version of myself for my clients and viewers.
If you are like me, you crave a balance of health and convenience.
It is my mission to share recipes with you that only require a handful of ingredients and tangible tips, knowing that most of us want to eat healthy foods but don’t have hours to devote to it. Thankfully, there ARE ways to do so – yogurt being one of them on busy mornings.
I am excited to partner with Oikos to share how I start my busy weekday mornings.
Oikos Greek Nonfat Yogurts are an excellent source of protein and a good source of calcium and vitamin D. They also contain active yogurt cultures, which contribute to the balance and diversity of bacteria in your gut. Greek yogurt is always my go-to because of its high protein content. Protein is a macronutrient I always encourage my clients to incorporate into their meals, especially breakfast. It is one of the most satiating nutrients and can help repair muscles after a workout.
This fall yogurt breakfast bowl provides protein, calcium and seasonal flare.
