Ask Dani – How Do I Help my 10y/o Son Lose Weight?
Dani, I came upon your website after looking for quinoa recipes and I am so impressed with your easy and simple recipes. My question though is this… How can I help my 10y/o son lose weight? I know you struggled from age 12 with diets. I don’t want his self esteem affected. I need to create healthy snacks. Can I put protein powder in smoothies for kids? He’s working out with a trainer once a week and I’m having him swim a lot this summer. My struggle though is that i have a thin 12y/o who eats whatever but I have to limit the 10y/o. Please shed some insight, thanks…. Ann Marie

I have to be honest, I’ve always been a bit of a fast eater BUT now with my new “Mom status” I have become an even faster eater.
Ask Dani – How Do You Come Up With Ideas?
Hi Dani, I’ve been reading your blog for about a year now and I’ve never let you know how much I’ve learned from not only your recipes, but your approach to food in general. I’m a 21 year-old college student in Portland, Oregon and I’ve been cooking healthfully for about three years now, and I’m always looking for ways to improve my cooking skills and spice up my plates. It’s hard because I’m on a tight budget, I go to school full-time and have a tiny, limited kitchen, AND I only cook for myself. That means I can’t make huge grocery trips where I spend 100+ dollars for only 3 or 4 days of food, and I can’t let ANYTHING go to waste.
