Maggie Michalczyk, RDN, Shares How She Celebrates Food Creativity and Seasonal Eating, with "Once Upon A Pumpkin"

Today on the podcast we have a wonderful conversation with Registered Dietician, Cookbook Author, and Blogger -- Maggie Michalczyk. Maggie is a lover of food, nutrition and all things pumpkin. Her blog and first cookbook, Once Upon A Pumpkin, which debuted in July is full of sweet, savory, and delicious recipes using all aspects of the superfood! Her seasonal approach to eating and love of pumpkin inspires delicious recipes year round.  

Maggie’s philosophy is rooted in science-based ways to eat more, stress less, and feel great about your body.  All of her recipes are nutrient dense, flavorful, easy to make, and fit a wide variety of diets. We have an incredible conversation today on her personal journey, nutrition, not letting fear hold you back, being food positive, and so much more!
