May is National Salad Month and while this may not excite you, I’m a big fan of salads!  I love that salads are not restricted to iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and heavy dressing.  You can make your salad whatever you want it to be!  You can add fruit, beans, nuts, or whatever else makes you…

Sweet, Sweet Strawberries By Charna Sheinfeld,  Nutrition Intern The tantalizing aroma, bright red color, and alluring flavor of strawberries is allowing me to believe that spring has truly sprung. How appropriate it is that May is the month we celebrate these robust berries? This is the time of year that strawberries are at their peak…

This sorbet is so delicious with natural sweetness from the fruit and added sweetness from honey. It is a little tangy, a little sweet, and wonderfully smooth and creamy. You’ll never go back to those packaged frozen desserts which are loaded with added sweeteners after you try this!

These French toast sandwiches are perfect for a Sunday morning breakfast or brunch with the family when you have a little more time to spend on cooking. Children can even help out as the recipe is pretty easy and straight forward. The strawberries are sweet so there is little need for added sweetener, making this a healthy and hearty meal that is high in fiber, and low in sugar.
