Stepping Outside Of The RD Box

Fellow RD Lee Jackson emailed me about doing a guest post on KERF a few weeks ago. As we brainstormed topic ideas, I realized she had a really cool nontraditional RD job that I wanted to know more about. I get emails all the time about the job options for RDs, so I figured a post on Lee’s career path would be interesting, especially since I knew going back to school that I wanted to do something crazy with food too : )

arrowswide

I was so excited to get the opportunity to write for one of my favorite blogs, and I immediately had a list of topic ideas running through my head, cooking for diabetes, arthritis, cancer…..but then Kath suggested, “What about a post about your career as an RD in a nontraditional role?” I have to admit, as a mom and registered dietitian for best-selling trim&TERRIFIC cookbook author, Holly Clegg, I get asked all the time ‘What do you do?’ But then reality hit and I realized I had to ANSWER that question – just what do I DO? As a stay-at-home-mom/work-from-home-mom, the job looks different day to day – heck, minute to minute, and balancing the two can be a little tricky at times, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.

KAY--3

As a healthy culinary expert, Holly Clegg truly is an amazing woman to work with – more of a friend than a ‘boss’ – and she has been a promoter of healthy cooking long before it was cool. In fact, she will tell you that with her first Trim & Terrific cookbook she would hear people say, “Oh no, I can’t give that to my daughter-in-law/friend/sister/etc, she will think I am calling her fat!” We now know how important nutrition is to quality of life, but there was a time when it definitely wasn’t the norm.

KAY-2014

There also was a time when the internet wasn’t the norm. Years ago, when I began working for Holly I was pretty green as far as mass communications, social media, public relations go and as Kath can surely attest, so much of any business needs a good foundation in these areas. I knew about calories, but what good is that if you can’t reach people and have them hear and learn what you are trying to teach.

So between cheerios, games on the iPhone (monitoring amount of time spent on the iPhone), diaper changes (and even worse – potty training) nursing an infant, carpool, grocery shopping, preparing dinner, Bible study, laundry, and picking up the house (notice I did not say cleaning up – I am a neat freak – not to be confused with a ‘clean freak’) there is still work to be done – and that is just a Monday. Although it can be overload at times, I love it, and that is why I do it – amongst all the other good stuff; family, friends, work keeps me, me.

KAY-1213

Writing has become a big part of what I do. Sure there is plenty of recipe development that Holly has deliciously done over the years (and I have so graciously helped and TASTED many of the recipes). But writing, whether it be in her cookbooks, or for magazines, websites or blogs – it is a majority of what I spend my time doing. And when it is written it must be ‘talked’ about – via Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Google+, Stumbleupon – social media must hear about it! You might be surprised to know that though I can calculate nutritional information, when it comes to the hundreds of recipes in her cookbooks we leave that up to the calculation programs built around the USDA nutrient database.

Taping for TV is fun too. After the groceries are bought, the food is prepped, the linens and dishes are set, we load it all in the car to bring to the news station. With the magic of TV you see Holly whip up several of her fantastic healthy dishes and you will find me never too far away (behind the camera guy, although unfortunately my boot – or butt- has been caught in the scene a time or too). We then load it all back up – at least what is left since the tv staff usually likes it when we bring food – and go back home to do dishes. No magic fairies doing dishes in our world, but I do get a yummy dinner out of it!

behind the scenes

Holly’s approach to food is healthy, easy food should always taste good, and as a dietitian, this approach I fully support. While helping develop KITCHEN 101:Secrets to Cooking Confidence, we included a “D” by each recipe to signify all recipes that comply with the American Diabetes Association. In Eating Well to Fight Arthritis we added a “D” as well as “G” for gluten-free recipes. We wanted to make these healthier dishes mainstream, showing that eating well can be an everyday thing, not a special diet.

Chicken Fajita Pizza from Holly Clegg’s trim&TERRIFIC KITCHEN 101: Secrets To Cooking Confidence

    Favorite recipe? Man, that’s hard. I’ve been eating this salad concoction almost everyday for the past two weeks: mixed greens, chicken breast, dried cranberries, dried cherries, sliced almonds, cukes, and tomatoes. It’s incredible.

    Pilsbury dough for the pizza crust? When you check out the ingredients for that it contains cottonseed oil which is mostly saturated fat and has pesticides in it (from the cotton crops). Also the third and fourth ingredients are both sugar. I’d never heard of Holly Clegg but checked out the website. Almost every recipe I looked at had something that came in a box, can or otherwise prepared.

    Her emphasis appears to be being skinny (trim) and she calls herself the “Queen of Quick”. What happened to real food and shopping the perimeter?

    Chocolate chip cookies. I think it’s just because I’m 7 months pregnant and am craving them 😉

    I love many recipes, but my crustless quiche is a current favorite. Lots of veggies, protein and a little cheese. What else could I want? I would love to win a cookbook. Especially if it has marking for recipes good for arthritis since my daughter struggles with arthritis. Anything that might help is worth doing!

    I very rarely use recipes unless I’m baking–I like to just throw stuff together! But my favorite recipe when baking would definitely be my mom’s cut out sugar cookies! YUM

    Kath’s “Throw In A Pot Veggie Chili”. I once ate it seven days straight.

    Ohh, I’d have to say steel cut oats with some almond butter on top!

    The green monster smoothie is the best name 🙂 I also love a salad we named after a friend who came up with the recipe – now known as Jackie’s salad.

    My favorite recipes are old family recipes we’ve been making forever! Standard apple pie, rolls, quiche, etc.!

    This is my first time commenting. I have been reading your blog for the last few years and really enjoyed the evolution of it along with your family. I developed gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with my two year old (age was the factor) and have been very conscious of eating healthy ever since, for myself and also for my son who now has a higher chance of developing diabetes as he gets older. These books would be another great resource to provide inspiration and information.

    I was just thinking tonight that I wanted to start using cookbooks more often; I’d love to check these out! Mostly I just throw things together without a recipe and call it a meal, but I always need to follow specifics for baking. I’ve screwed up too many baked goods when not following a recipe!
