Liz Weiss is a registered dietitian and one-half of "The Meal Makeover Moms" (the other half being Janice Newell Bissex).
As two of the nation’s top experts on family nutrition, they’re on a mission to help busy families eat better. The Moms give family-favorite recipes a healthy makeover by weaving in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, healthy oils and more. Their recipes are easy to make, appeal to kids, and make mealtime less stressful for parents who want their families to eat more than the chicken nuggets and mac-n-cheese that often end up on the table.
One of the newest trends Liz and Janice are seeing today are "super bowls."
Liz joins Naturally Savvy host, Lisa Davis, to share some of her own super bowl recipes, including the Peanut Power Smoothie Bowl, Tuscan Tuna Bowl, and Pumpkin Turkey Chili Bowl.
