Curried Butternut Squash Stew

I get to eat this delicious stew during Detox? Yum!

I have always loved food and cooking. I still remember my very first Peanut’s Cook Book and making Lucy’s Lemon Squares for my dad every Father’s Day.

When I became a nurse, I started learning more about the link between food and health. But it wasn’t until I became a mom that I started thinking of food as medicine. We lead such busy lives that committing to healthy habits can be a real challenge. Believe me, I know first-hand! To stay consistent, I created a healthy eating system for me and my family that was a practical, holistic way to eat well and enjoy life’s pleasures.

If you are looking for a personalized, healthy eating plan that actually works for you and your family’s busy lifestyle and budget, you are in the right place. Follow these three simple steps:

Delicious. Healthy. Fast!
