I often turn to the magazine Eating Well for creative and healthy dinner ideas. Last night, when I was trying to figure out what to make, I remembered that the “Healthy in a Hurry” section of this month’s issue gave a different soup recipe for each night of the week. I decided to modify the Creamy Hungarian Mushroom Soup based on what I had on hand in the refrigerator and pantry.

Between football games and holiday parties there sure are a lot of celebrations this time of year, all of which tend to involve food.  Last week I shared one of my favorite hors d’oeurves, Salmon Ceviche in Cucumber Cups, on fellow dietitian Robyn Webb’s Fabulous Food Finds blog.

As I shared in my intro post, I used to work in fashion, and I hope to combine my career as a dietitian with my love for fashion. Fashion and food have always been among my favorite topics, and lately it seems I’m not alone! Food and fashion are coming together in pop-culture and in Hollywood, where food and restaurants are becoming as trendy and fashionable as the newest clothing designers and runway shows. Chefs are even becoming th… read more »
