Ditch the Processed Foods — Here’s How to Actually Eat Clean! Nancy Easton

What if changing what we eat could change the future of a nation? Mercedes and Anastasia are joined by Nancy Easton: leader and founder of Wellness in the Schools, a nonprofit on the mission to replace ultra-processed school lunches with fresh, scratch-cooked meals. In this powerful conversation, Nancy describes tangible tips for prioritizing healthy eating within a busy lifestyle, go-to meals and snacks, and advice for handling the transition from living at-home, to cooking for oneself. Nancy also brings us behind-the-scenes at Wellness in the Schools, describing a day-in-the-life, and her most memorable moments.
