A Wild Week February 20, 2012

This week I have bitten off quite a big bite. I have 2 cooking classes (see last week’s post for more info) and a nutrition expert panel on Friday night. I’m really excited to be doing this panel with my good friend and fellow sports dietitian, Kerri Napoleon. The event is at Jacksonville Running Company (Batram Park location) at 7pm. It’s free and open to all. Come join us and bring all your nutrition questions.

On another note, I spent some time reading my nutrition journal today. I read some great studies on phytonutrient intake and shaping children’s eating habits. I look forward to sharing some interesting tidbits with you later this week.

Please be patient with my writing this week. Between developing recipes and caring for the fam, I won’t have a lot of extra time. Follow my twitter posts (@jbraddockrd) for updates on the week.

Oh, one more thing. I’m very excited to announce that some fresh changes are coming to Fresh Food Perspectives. Stay tuned and please spread the word about this site.

Have a healthy week!

Cooking Class this Week January 16, 2012

This week I have the pleasure of cooking at A. Chefs’s Cooking Studio on Wednesday at 6 pm. The theme is Asian noodle and rice dishes. Come join us for a fun and relaxing time in Chef Andrea’s kitchen. Call the studio to reserve your spot.
I hope to see you there!

TV Appearance this Week October 4, 2011

This week I have another exciting opportunity to be on TV. Tomorrow, October 5th, I will be on First Coast Living at 11am discussing gluten free diets. I am very excited about this topic because it seems to have a lot of people confused. Please tune in and let me know what you think.

Also coming up is my next cooking class at Whole Foods on October 18th. Our topic is “Flavors of Fall” and I can’t wait! I love making comfort food healthy and delicious! Click here to sign up.

Have a healthy day!
