Welcome to Parker County Mama Eats! I can’t think of a better day then the day before Thanksgiving to start sharing food facts, nutrition tips and yummy recipes. Over the past year I’ve been working on my degree in Food & Nutrition. I truly thought I knew a lot of about the medicinal power of food before I started my journey to becoming an RD but WOW eating a colorful diet blended with all types of fruit, vegetables, complex carbohydrates and protein is the best defense against disease, cancer, the ageing process  and most all how you feel each day! Learning to eat mindfully surrounded by friends and family is also very imporant in our fast paced world. Cheers to you and your family this holiday season. I encourage you to fill your plate with variety and lots of color. Check back soon for simple recipes, food finds, and everyday nutritional tips to help make your life just a little healthier with each bite.
