I am a mom of 3 daughters, a holistic nutritionist, the founder of Better School Food and one of the Two Angry Moms.

Better School Food is dedicated to supporting parents and others to advocate for a better food environment for our children, wherever kids meet and eat!

That can be K-12 public schools, preschools, childcare programs, summer camps, after school programs and private schools.

To learn more about how you can get involved and make a difference, I am offering to host a free teleclass, School Food 101 for Rachael Ray viewers.

To sign up for the free teleclass, send me an e-mail at info@betterschoolfood.org

How did you become passionate about healthy eating?
12 years ago, my daughter came home with junk food that she had bought in the cafeteria! I was shocked, so I got involved. I ended up leaving my career as a dentist and went back to school for nutrition. Now, I use food as a healing tool in my private practice.

Would you want to come on the show to share your efforts?
I was just there, but would love to come back and share some more.

Do you have a favorite healthy meal to make?
I love oven roasted veggies, a simple whole grain cooked in my way cool Japanese Rice cooker and some freshly made soup.

What healthy staples do you always keep in your pantry or fridge?
I love to get my veggies fresh from the garden or farmers market whenever possible......whatever is in season at the peak of freshness.

What one thing can other people do to make a difference when it comes to health and nutrition?
GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY! By that, I mean get involved with cooking and growing your own food! Great for your health and the health of the planet!
