Sharing this visual from @foodandfearless that answers a question I get frequently: what’s the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist (side note: these definitions are for the US only!). A dietitian (aka registered dietitian/registered dietitian nutritionist in the US) is a credentialed health professional. In order to become an RD/RDN one must obtain a bachelors in nutrition from an accredited program, compete for a spot in a dietetic internship, complete 10-12 months of unpaid dietetic internship experience, and take a registration exam (*in 2024 all new RDs will also need a masters degree). We also must complete 75 units of continuing education every 5 years. In comparison, a “nutritionist” can be anyone from your personal trainer who took an online course in nutrition over the weekend, your hot friend, or “influencers” who peddle skinny tea and fad diet weight loss programs 🤦🏽‍♀️. So, if you’re looking for nutrition advice, go to a registered dietitian! And if you want to be a nutrition expert, look into becoming a registered dietitian (it’s not easy, but it’s why dietitians are the nutrition professionals). Feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have about the above 🤓🌱 . . . . . #dietitian #plantbased #plantbaseddietitian #vegandietitian #veganrd #dietitianapproved #dietitiansofinstagram #mastersinnutrition #counseling #nutritiontherapy #rdn #dietitians #eatright #health #wellness #fuelyourbody #fuelyourlife #healthy #buildupdietitians #fnce #thrive #educate

Fall is officially here in NY and that means delicious, warming fall recipes 😊🍁🍂 This morning I started my day with a bowl of protein oats (add plant-based protein powder after cooking oats) flavored with cinnamon, ground cloves, and topped with peanut butter, raisins, and a locally grown apple 🍎 What’s your favorite way to celebrate the fall season?

Nacho typical post from me—because I’m eating food that I didn’t make myself 🤓👩🏼‍🍳 I love getting inspiration from meals that I’ve enjoyed at restaurants and I’m looking forward to trying to recreate these delicious vegan nachos from @thepurpleelephantrestaurant 🐘💜 In the meantime, I’m sharing some of my favorite vegan/veg-friendly restaurants/cafes/eateries on Long Island on my blog today (vitaminvalentine.com). Let me know if you’ve tried any of my recommendations and feel free to let me know your favorite vegan restaurant below! ↓ . . . . . #vegan #vegansoflongisland #northshore #eastcoastvegans #vegansofig #vegancommunity #longisland #nyc #nycvegans #eatmoreplants #localguide #restaurants #veganreviews #vegnews #vegantravel #nutrition #eattherainbow #vegannachos #vegandining #costaricanfood #desserts #vegandesserts #eatlocal #supportsmallbusiness #nassaucounty

Something I hear from clients is that they’d love to be able to cook more vegan/plant-based food but they don’t want to spend their limited time trying to make elaborate, difficult-to-prepare meals. This is one of the reasons why I love creating and sharing easy meal prep ideas! Each recipe took me 15 minutes to prepare and tastes delicious! Recipe dEATs below: . •Seitan + black bean burrito bowls- sauté bell peppers + onions on the stove, add seitan and black beans on medium heat. After cooking, place ingredients in a soft-shell tortilla, top with salsa and vegan cheese 🌮 . •Plant-protein bento bowls- I combined @eatbanza rice, sautéed collards, beans, a little seitan, and raw veggies. Place in a bowl or container + top with your favorite dressing 🥗 . •Pesto pasta with spinach + beans- cook @eatbanza pasta, sauté spinach + beans for a few mins, add all ingredients together and mix in @traderjoes vegan pesto 🍝🌱 . Questions about any of these meal preps? Let me know below!
