Welcome

My name is Lisa Tsakos, Registered Holistic Nutritional Consultant, corporate speaker and author. This blog provides professional advice from a nutrition and weight loss expert (me!) about corporate and family health. Here you'll find recipes and articles that address work-related challenges like eating on-the-go and maximizing your productivity with the right foods. You'll also find out about how you can help your children develop strong immune systems and healthy bodies. As a nutrition instructor, I often found myself thinking, "When I have kids, this is how I will feed them." With two toddlers, I have the opportunity to practice what I have been preaching and to try out my theories. So far, they seem to be working! Follow me on my journey and also on Twitter @NuVitalityHW.

Label Lessons: Battle of the sandwich cookie

Before you "twist, lick & dunk" another Oreo cookie, check out the latest Label Lessons column in December's Tonic Toronto Magazine, where we compare Golden Oreo's with Country Choice Organic's Vanilla Sandwich Cremes. 



If you love Oreo's and are looking for a gluten-free replica, try Kinni-Toos Fudge Sandwich Creme Cookies (about $4.99 a pack). My kids go crazy for them. 

 
For Olivia's second birthday, I made a gluten-free ice cream cake using ground K-Toos as the crust. 

I'm going to make it for my birthday this weekend and will post the recipe next week. Stay tuned...!
