One hectic afternoon in the midst of another 12 hour day at the pharmacy; my husband stops by with an Amy's Black Bean Enchilada meal...my nutritional life has never been the same!!!
As a nurse and a pharmacist, I cannot encourage people enough to examine their "nutritional prescriptions". Pills can help, but the phytonutrition in your meals (flavonoids in tofu, high fiber in essentially all meals, vitamins and more...) are the best advice I've given!
My children love your meals. I'm thinking a broad launch at child nutrition would be a fabulous approach! Your meals are balanced, bright, texture rich and portioned properly!
Thank you for feeding us so well!

PS...when we put fresh cilantro, avocado and a dollop of sour cream on top of the southwestern dishes...our family goes crazy!
