Transform Your Relationship with Food
Simple, Enjoyable Nutrition for the Whole Family
Hi, I’m Sammi! I’m here to help you enjoy food without stress. From my own experiences, I’ve learned that nutrition should be fun and simple. Join me in creating a joyful, guilt-free relationship with food for you and your family.
Personal Experience
My Journey to Food Freedom
During my teenage years and early 20’s, I struggled with my own relationship with food – big time. I tried countless diets, counted calories, and constantly grazed on food that “didn’t count.”
Nothing worked. I still felt completely confused about what to eat and insecure in my body.
It wasn’t until I saw a dietitian for myself…
…and began to learn more and more about nutrition that I realized 2 important facts.
These principles are the foundation of my nutrition practice.
Since then, I was able to transform my relationship with food. I stopped dieting and obsessing over what I ate. I started enjoying all foods.
Doing so didn’t just make food feel easier.
It made everything feel easier.
Without obsessing over food, I was able to enjoy it instead. I could go out to dinner with friends without feeling guilty or stressed about what I’d order.
I learned to tune in to what my body was asking for and easily create nutritious, feel good meals. I could grab a cookie in the middle of a Tuesday, without worrying about the calories or that it would send me into a shame spiral.
I want this for you too.

My Mission as a Registered Dietitian
As a Registered Dietitian, my views on nutrition continue to evolve as I’m constantly learning about food, the body, and eating behaviors. I now run my own private practice, where I meet with clients individually and work with different food brands on recipe development and spokesperson work.
I wrote a cookbook, The Essential Vegetable Cookbook, that came out in Summer 2018, to give you and your family easy, nutritious recipes. I’m proud to also be a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor so that I can truly help you create a healthy relationship with food.
Helping Families with Nutrition
We have to eat every single day. I truly want to help you because you deserve an easy, stress-free relationship with food. And, as a mom of 2 little ones, I know how stressful and all-consuming it can be feeding kids. What nutrients do they need? What will they actually eat? How do you avoid passing along disordered eating habits to them?
I want to help you easily feed your kids, while also ensuring that they build the foundation for a healthy relationship with food. You already know that your kids see and hear everything. And diet culture is learned – we aren’t born thinking foods are good or bad. Let’s help your kids maintain an easy going and fun relationship with food too.

My Nutrition Philosophy
Two main points are the tenets of my nutrition philosophy and all of the work that I do:
Nutrition Should Be Easy
I mean, flat out simple. I know you’re busy and don’t need extra stress around meals. We have to eat every single day – it should be enjoyable and easy. Forget about obscure superfoods and complicated meals; I believe in common, well-known ingredients and simple meals.
All Foods Fit®
All foods really can fit. Crispy French fries; gooey, buttery cookies; and fresh, crunchy salads can all be a part of your diet. In order to make your diet (defined as: what you eat) sustainable and enjoyable, all foods are allowed. Unless you’re avoiding something for medical or religious reasons, there are no restrictions ever – and all in a guilt-free way.
