March is Nutrition Month

March is Nutrition Month...a good time to think about what we're eating and how we can eat to be healthy. The Dietitians of Canada have a great Nutrition Month promotion on their site. Check out their Nutrition Challenge to see how you're doing with eating for health. The site also has a great list of practical, realistic tips to help you eat better.

If you're looking for more information on nutrition, you can call Dial-a-Dietitian to talk to a local dietitian about specific nutrition issues. Or you can check out their recommended book list for good books on nutrition.

If you're inspired to cook up some healthy recipes this month, try some of these out:
Tuscan White Bean Salad
Snapper and Fennel Chowder
Betty's Steamed Salmon Steaks
Tinolang Manok
Banana Oatmeal Muffins
Whole Wheat Irish Soda Bread
