As a dad to a toddler, mac and cheese is a staple in our house. But as someone who doesn’t enjoy keeping a ton of food items on hand, or cooking with a lot of ingredients, this three ingredient mac and cheese is a HUGE WIN. Plus, it’s high in protein, creamy, and is a great way to get some fiber with the chickpea pasta.

As nutrition coaches, we have the privilege of building close relationships with our clients as we help guide them toward their goals - be those related to aesthetics or fat loss goals, performance goals, or goals of optimal health. Along the way, as we work on building a better relationship with food and our habits, we get to share parts of our stories that are relevant to our coaching styles. We’re taking time this year to share more about us, our nutrition journeys and transformations, our road to becoming nutrition coaches and educators, and the amazing clients we have the privilege of working with. 

“I just hate eating vegetables” tends to be the most common sentence I read when I get a new client intake form. It usually comes straight after reading that said client’s main goal is to “lose fat and gain muscle.” If that gives you any consolation for not being a fan of veggies, GREAT. But in years of coaching, I’ve learned it’s not so much about hating vegetables as much as not knowing how to prepare them or make them enjoyable.
