Healthy eating for you and your baby
Eating a healthy, balanced diet is an important part of a healthy life style and is every bit as important now that you’ve given birth as it was during your pregnancy. Now that you’ve had your baby, you need to help your body to heal and recover from that process whether you are breastfeeding or not.
The early days and weeks after your baby’s birth are recognised as being extremely tiring for most new mums as you adjust to the demands of early motherhood and your baby’s needs. It is therefore important that you do as much as you can to look after your own health and well-being and maintain your strength.
A healthy, balanced diet
It is now widely accepted that eating a healthy, balanced diet and having a variety of foods from the main food groups is the best way to obtain all the nutrients that your body needs for health and well-being. Each day you should aim to eat and drink the following:
- five portions of fruit and vegetables
- starchy foods such as bread, rice, pasta, cereals and potatoes (try to make these the main part of your meal – they’ll keep your energy levels up!)
- protein foods such as fish, lean meat, eggs, beans and pulses (these promote healing and are particularly important if you’ve had stitches or a caesarean birth)
- dairy foods such as milk, yoghurt, fromage frais and cheese
- regular glasses of water, diluted fruit or vegetable juices. You should drink only small amounts of alcohol, and, if you are breastfeeding, it’s best to avoid alcohol completely.
It is also a good idea to cut down on high fat and sugary foods such as cakes, crisps, biscuits, and fast food. Caring for your newborn often means you have very little time for yourself and it’s easy to rely on a quick energy ‘fix’ from biscuits, sweets and cakes. These foods boost your energy levels for only a short time, which leaves you craving for more to eat. It is far better to have healthy snacks available and when you feel hungry or in need of an energy boost eat foods such as: fresh/dried fruit, hummus with pitta bread/vegetable sticks, pasta or breakfast cereals/bars. These foods are far more nutritious and will sustain your energy levels for much longer!
Extra requirements when you are breastfeeding
In addition to the foods that make up a healthy balanced diet, there are some extra requirements needed when you are breastfeeding, including the need for increased energy foods (ie extra calories), as well as plenty of fluids. You may feel extra thirsty and need to have a drink each time your baby breastfeeds – try to make sure you have a glass of water, diluted fruit juice or milk to hand! Breastfeeding also burns up a lot of calories, which is why women who choose this method of baby feeding, tend to return to their pre-pregnant state a lot quicker than women who formula feed. It is perfectly normal to feel hungry, so eating regular balanced meals and drinking plenty of fluids will help to ensure that your body maintains its milk supply. The general advice is to listen to your body and follow what your appetite and thirst tells you.
Should I avoid certain foods while I’m breastfeeding?
Very occasionally, breastfeeding mothers may find that a food they’ve eaten seems to have upset their baby’s tummy. The only way to determine whether a specific food is the ‘culprit’ is to stop eating it for a week and see if the baby is more comfortable. In the main, breastfeeding doesn’t mean that you need to restrict your normal diet – whatever you ate before giving birth can still be enjoyed.
Specific vitamins and minerals
Maintaining adequate vitamin D stores for both your own and your baby’s health is as important when you are breastfeeding as it was during your pregnancy. However, some women may be more susceptible to low levels of vitamin D (vitamin D deficiency). If you are of South Asian, Middle Eastern, African or Caribbean family origin, are vegetarian, your diet is particularly low in vitamin D, your culture/religion requires your clothing to cover most of your body (particularly in regions where there is little sunlight), you are predominantly housebound, or significantly overweight, you may be at risk of low levels of Vitamin D and may need to think about increasing your intake of this vitamin. If this is the case, you can choose to eat more vitamin D rich foods, including oily fish, such as, sardines or salmon, cooked eggs, meat and vitamin D fortified margarines, spreads or cereals. Your midwife or GP can also prescribe Vitamin D supplements for you to take.
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), which is a special health authority of the English National Health Service, recommends that pregnant and breastfeeding women take a vitamin D supplement of 10 micrograms each day. Healthy breastfed babies born to mothers who have followed this recommendation should start receiving vitamin D supplements (as part of a multivitamin supplement) from six months of age. If there are any concerns about a mother’s vitamin D status during pregnancy, or she is considered susceptible to low levels of vitamin D, then vitamin D supplements for mother and baby should be started soon after birth.
You will have been advised in pregnancy to avoid very high intakes of one form of vitamin A (called ‘retinol’), which has been linked with babies being born with birth defects. Abnormally high levels of retinol are found in liver, liver pâté, sausages, fish liver oils and some supplements. If you are breastfeeding you will need to continue to avoid eating liver and liver products.
Your body needs iron to make haemoglobin (see our feature on Anaemia after childbirth). Blood lost around the time of your baby’s birth can cause your haemoglobin levels to fall; therefore, it’s important to eat foods that are iron rich, including: red meat, dark green vegetables, fortified breakfast cereals, wholemeal bread, and eggs. If you also eat vitamin C rich food at the same time as these foods (eg fresh orange juice with wholemeal toast), this makes it easier for your body to absorb the iron. Whereas, tea, coffee, phytates (which are found in wheat and other cereals) and oxalates (which are found in rice) can reduce iron absorption.
Useful tip: Tea and coffee are best drunk between, rather than with, meals
The Department of Health says there is no evidence that eating or not eating peanuts while you are pregnant and breastfeeding affects your baby’s chances of developing a peanut allergy. However, despite the Department’s revised guidance you may still prefer to avoid eating peanuts while you are breastfeeding your baby. If you have any concerns or have allergies yourself, your GP, midwife or health visitor can advise you.
Is it okay to start dieting now that I’ve had my baby?
Once you’ve given birth, it’s quite normal to want to get back into your pre-pregnancy clothes. However, it isn’t a good idea to start dieting as soon as your baby’s born because you need to maintain your energy levels to help you recover from their birth. Choosing the type of foods you eat and when you eat them, will help healthy eating habits become part of your daily routine and supports future weight loss. If you are worried about your weight, talk to your midwife, health visitor or GP who will be able to advise and support you.


Ok so I was a little ify on what to do with the youth day turkey. I saw my wife had printed off a recipe for chicken cordon blue so I figured why not. I breasted out the turkey Dylan shot on youth day. and here goes the experiment.
You need: a couple of eggs mixed up for a wash. Seasoned bread crumbs. Swiss cheese slices Ham slices seasoning of your choice.
I took the turkey breasts and butterflied them. Each turkey breast, after butterflying them, was spiced on the inside with salt pepper and garlic powder. Cover half the breast in ham slices and the swiss cheese. Roll the turkey breast up as tight as you can and hold in place with tooth picks (count how many toothpicks you put in the roll). Get a large enough dish that the rolled up turkey will fit and blend the eggs up. Roll the roll in the egg wash and then in the seasoned bread crumbs. Place the roll on a cookie sheet lightly coated with PAM. put in the oven at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes or until the turkey gets a nice brown color.
Let rest for a few minutes and and remove tooth picks. Slice into portion sizes and enjoy.
I must admit I was a little worried but I can tell you this was REALLY GOOD....

Nutrient dense diet tips flood the web. It’s the new way to eat. But actually, it’s the old way to eat. It’s how people ate in the days before sodium-laden, sugar-laden, fat-heavy processed foods. And it’s how we’d eat now if we weren’t so lazy.
The nutrient dense diet is simple, and as a matter of fact, it’s not a diet at all but a way of life. It boils down to this: eating foods that nourish the body and shunning those that don’t.
What does that mean, exactly? It means that before you put anything in your mouth, you stop and think if it’s as wholesome as possible. It means changing the way you cook so that if you’re planning a side dish, you choose brown rice over white, whole wheat pasta over regular, whole grains over refined. It means NOT EATING foods that aren’t good for you, because there’s always a choice. You can always eat something in which every calorie provides precious nutrients, instead of grabbing that bag of chips and rationalizing to yourself that potatoes are a vegetable.
Nutrient Dense Diets: More Planning
I’m not going to kid you: it’s a lot harder to eat a nutrient dense diet. I know because I began eating a nutrient dense diet just after the Passover holiday ended. It takes more planning, careful shopping, and means more work in the kitchen, too. It also takes discipline to say no to the non-nutritious foods I’ve grown to love.
Now if you think about it, you fed your infant this way—fed him a nutrient dense diet. You prepared wholesome meals for your baby and never would have thought of giving him junk. That is, until he grew a bit bigger and you thought it would be cute, for instance, to give him a taste of cotton candy, or ice cream, or a French fry. And things went downhill from there.
Once we get a taste of high calorie foods, the brain develops a thing for those foods. It’s a harbinger to the caveman days when surviving meant packing in as many calories as possible at any one time, because cavemen didn’t know when their next meal would be. It all depended on the day’s catch or hunt and whatever produce could be foraged in the wild.
Foods with large amounts of salt, sugar, combined with built-in fats also provide lots of sensory pleasure and when we eat them, our brains tell us to keep coming back for more. Unlike in the days of our cavemen ancestors, however, the food never runs out. We can always buy another bag of chips. Hence, the problem of childhood obesity in America has, if you’ll excuse the pun, grown enormously, with one in every six children qualifying as obese.
Fast food restaurants and junk food makers have latched on to this notion that the brain is attracted to high-calorie food. They pack in the calories in the food items they plug and layer the flavors, using this time-proven formula to create addictive foods. It’s just that simple.
Nutrient Dense Diet Vs. Processed Foods
Adopting a nutrient dense diet, means shunning popular processed foods and snacks. In so doing, we go up against years of food and marketing research underwritten by mega companies determined to sell you products. Fresh, home-cooked brown rice with stir-fried chicken breast and broccoli florets is going to have a hard time competing with a Big Mac and fries. It’s also going to have a hard time competing with packaged prepared versions of the same thing because your homemade version won’t have all the sodium and artificial flavors to which our tongues have grown accustomed.
And I’m going to level with you: the nutrient dense diet is not something your child will automatically (if at all) embrace.
But as parents, we have a duty to try and provide our families with a nutrient dense diet, and especially our children who are still growing and learning. They need the nutrients provided by wholesome foods to be healthy and do their best in school. Moreover, getting children used to a nutrient dense diet, sets them on the road to a healthier future as adults, too. Whole foods have antioxidants and other good things that protect us from illnesses like cancer.
You just can’t get that in a Big Mac.
Nutrient Dense Diet Superfoods
Need some ideas on how to get your children started on a nutrient dense diet? Here are some foods to try adding to family meals:
Basil is jam-packed with good things like antioxidants and vitamins A, C, and K. The herb is also a great source of iron, calcium and potassium and can aid digestion. If your child is the adventuresome type, use basil to whip up a pesto sauce for pasta or chicken breasts. If, on the other hand, your kid freaks out at the sight of anything green, mix it into meat balls. He’ll never know it’s there.
Beans are a nutrient dense diet must and a fantastic source of protein, fiber, and calcium—things that kids may not get enough of on their own. The darker the bean, the more nutrients provided. And by the way, beans fight high cholesterol and heart disease. Make refried bean wraps or quesadillas or set out some black bean hummus with carrot sticks for some satisfying crunch.
Blueberries are way up there on the list of healthiest fruits. The plump little guys are filled with antioxidants to protect the heart, prevent diabetes, and improve brain function. Now new research shows that blueberries can help take off belly fat, which is linked with obesity and metabolic syndrome. Toss blueberries into salads or a bowl of granola, eat them for dessert, or make a blueberry smoothie with yogurt and cinnamon (add honey for children over the age of one year) for a cool, nutritious treat.
Cabbage has a milder flavor than most greens and kids like it because of the crunch factor. This superfood protects the body against cancer and is good for the digestion. Make an Asian cabbage and noodle salad, something guaranteed to please.
Cinnamon should be a part of every nutrient dense diet. The spice stabilizes blood sugar to prevent mid-morning slump. Add cinnamon to anything you can: baked goods, cereals, yogurt, and desserts.
We’re not talking hot cocoa here, but cocoa powder, which is chock full of flavonoids, good for blood pressure, the heart, and guarantees a good checkup at the dentist to boot. Cocoa may even help protect your child’s skin from sun damage. Avoid Dutch process cocoa if you want to get the health benefits from flavonoids, and add cocoa to pancake or waffle batter, French toast, or um, just eat your chocolate straight up. 70% cocoa and up is best for the nutrient dense diet.
Vitamin D is something we mostly get from the sun. But eggs are a natural food source for vitamin D, which aids the body in absorbing calcium. Eggs are a great protein source and kids who eat eggs for breakfast are less likely to suffer hunger pangs in the classroom way before it’s time for lunch. Eggs keep kids (and adults) feeling full longer.
Blueberries were mentioned above, but really, any fruit is good for children. Each type of fruit has its own nutritional benefits and of course, fruit offers a sweet form of dietary fiber. Try to vary the fruit you serve your child to get the full complement of vitamins and minerals.
Greek yogurt isn’t just a fad—it’s really an almost perfect food and certainly belongs in the nutrient dense diet. The white stuff has probiotics, a kind of good bacteria that boosts the immune system and aids digestion. Greek yogurt also has more protein and less sugar than any other type of yogurt. Use a healthy sweetener, for instance honey in kids over one year, or try some maple syrup, to make Greek yogurt nutritious and delicious.
Dairy products provide protein and calcium: fuel for the brain, bones, body, and teeth. Fortunately, kids love cereal and melted cheese, so it’s not hard to get dairy into their diets!
Nuts have the good kind of fat that fights high cholesterol and protects the heart. Kids also need healthy fat for their growth and development. A handful of almonds as a snack can give your child extra energy for the morning ahead. Eating a spoonful of peanut butter before bed can prevent mid-morning slump.
It’s proven: kids who eat oatmeal for breakfast pay better attention in school. Oatmeal has lots of fiber so it takes a long time to digest, which keeps kids energy levels steadier over the course of the morning.
Salmon has those special omega-3 fats that are good for the heart and brain. Some say this fish-derived fat even serves as a treatment for ADHD. Salmon also fights inflammation and besides, it’s delish and versatile, so definitely belongs in the nutrient dense diet. Chances are, you won’t have a hard time finding a way to prepare salmon so your child will eat and enjoy this beautifully pink fish. Salmon burgers will always be seen as a treat.
Soy has low-fat protein and calcium and it wards off cancer. Make a stir-fry with tofu cubes or whip up silken tofu to make smoothies. Looking for a new snack food? Try boiling edamame (green soybeans) in the pod and after draining, toss in some soy sauce and sprinkle on some salt. Kids love shooting them out of their pods.They’re addictive!
Tomatoes fight cancer, but mostly when they’ve been cooked long enough to release their lycopene. That means red sauce. Yup. Red sauce belongs in the nutrient dense diet. Luckily, kids love anything with red sauce: lasagna, tacos, spaghetti and meatballs, chili, and of course, PIZZA. There’s a reason that so many tomato recipes include olive oil, which helps the body absorb more tomato nutrients.
What’s your favorite superfood for making sure your child eats a nutrient dense diet?


Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, which is why we spend so much time on Spend Little Cook Lots talking about it. The options for breakfast are endless, but the healthiest options are sometime the easiest. Eggs, are a staple in the first meal of the day. They are easy, they are versatile, they are cheap, they are full of goodness to start your day! If you wanna step up your egg game you can even make egg whites, which is everything in the shell but the yolk. This options makes your morning even healthier. If you are like me, you need some meat or protein to go along with your eggs. Turkey Sausage from Breakfast Best, is the best no matter pork, chicken or turkey. Aldi only carries them on a limited time basis in the frozen section. They are only 99 Cents for a pack!!! Under a dollar for ten of these delicious breakfast logs. Start your Monday with Breakfast Best and get to your Aldi to stock up today, you will not regret it!

We all enjoyed taking part in a variety of activities during ‘Health Week’. We started the week off with a demonstration by our fantastic gymnastics followed by a whole school aerobics session on the field. We also enjoyed taking part in exercise classes with Miss Martin throughout the week.
The LAF (Lifestyle, Activity and Food) team from Sunderland City Council came into school and worked with different classes during the week to remind us all how we can have a healthy, balanced diet. We also took part in a cooking competition where we had to design and make a healthy dish using Fairtrade ingredients. Father Marc and our other guest judges enjoyed sampling all of our tasty recipes. Year 6 won with their yummy curry!


My approach to child nutrition & gut health:
Your baby/child’s gut health plays a large roll in her overall wellness. From the best nutrition tips to key supplements like probiotics and microbiome balancing that optimize gut health, at Little Roots Pediatrics we believe that food is medicine.
The best health outcomes are inseparable from good nutrition and gut health. At Little Roots, we believe in empowering families and our young patients with an understanding of their nutritional roadmap and how to reach their health goals.

It is more than just what we eat, but how we support the gut environment to allow for optimal synthesis and absorption to lay the groundwork for lasting health.


Yummy nom noms
We’re getting ready for Summer camp! As well as organising toys, human food, shade, and seating, I decided to try some high value treats for Jaxon’s rewards. The camp is three days long, so I knew I’d need an arsenal of treats.
Thanks to our friend 1st World Dog, we have e a great recipe book in Foodie Fridays to choose from that are tried and tested.
I chose Liver Fudge and Kangaroo Meatloaf (I call it meatloaf as I accidentally added flour) to try out.
Jaxon waited keenly for the results, and was rewarded with a taste test. Looks like the recipes pass muster! Now Jason has plenty of food and rewards for the camp!

Because body fat is left unprotected at this time. It's weak, because insulin levels are at rock bottom in the morning. This is the ideal time to maximally oxidize fat with a cardio- based type of activity, tripling fat mobilization over already high resting values. Examples of this are: Slow sustained walking on a treadmill on an incline, slow hikes that last for an hour. People tend to do too much high intensity cardio ,which eats up or catabolizes muscle tissue, this is because glycogen, which is stored in the liver and muscle tissue, is the easiest and fastest form of energy for your body to derive and burn. Ideally your goal is to preferentially burn fat ,not muscle.

Breakfast should not be skipped, it the most important meal of the day. When you sleep your body goes into starvation mode, once you wake up you want to eat to boost your metabolism. Skipping breakfast will keep your body in starvation mode, which will keep your metabolism running low. Eating breakfast will help you from overeating in the afternoon or binging on unhealthy foods. It also helps us keep our focus and concentration thru out the morning

By eating a diet containing raw organic fruits and vegetables, you can help protect your body from chronic diseases as well as adding a number of health benefits. Try to incorporate a wide variety of raw vegetables, fruits and nuts into your daily diet. By doing so, you will derive the optimum amount of vitamins, minerals and phyto nutrients(plant derived nutrients)from the food that you are eating. When you eat raw protein sources, such as avocados, mushrooms and nuts, your body is able to assimilate the amino acids much more efficiently because they're not destroyed by heat. Once vegatables are cooked over 130 degrees, you are destroying most of the vitamins and nutrients. Try having an apple with some raw almonds or adding some mixed berries in your oatmeal or plain greek yogurt in the morning. For lunch, I try to substitute spinach and kale instead of lettuce for my salads for an added boost of Iron. For a snack try organic carrots, broccoli, cucumbers and celery with some hummus or almond butter. Here is a list of some fruits and vegetables that contain high amounts of Iron, vitamin C and K as well as high quality protein: spinach ,green beans,kale, broccoli,cucumber, radishes, beats,squash, celery, tomatoes, red and orange peppers, mushrooms and dark leaf lettuce, apples, blueberries, grapes, plums, grapefruit, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and pears.
More often than not, we have days where we don't feel like working out. Next time you find yourself talking yourself out of your workout or wanting to stop a little early in the workout, try stepping up the game and push yourself a little harder. For example, maybe increasing the weight or doing a super set,increasing the number of repetitions or by picking up the pace. Also try adding in some mountain climbers or jumping rope, to increase the work load and burn more calories. Just when you start telling yourself "I can't" start telling yourself "I will". You will often find that when you have the least amount of energy or say "I dont feel like working out", you usually end up having one of the best workouts.


After personally testing dozens of pizza restaurants, we’ve found the best pizza in Roanoke, VA for every pizza taste. Whether you love New York style pizza or you can’t get enough wood-fired slices, you’re sure to find your new favorite pizza place on this list.
I may not be an expert on fine dining, but I know my pizza. I’ve always loved pizza and I’m pretty sure there isn’t a pizza place within an hour of Roanoke we haven’t tried. If there’s anyone qualified to judge the best pizza places in Roanoke, I feel pretty confident it’s me.
Luckily, Roanoke has a ton of pizza restaurants and many of them offer a great slice. Of course, they can’t all be amazing; there are plenty of mediocre pizza places here just like anywhere else.
To save you from suffering needlessly through disappointing pizza, I’m sharing the seven best pizza restaurants in Roanoke no matter what your pizza preference.
Of course there are more than seven good pizza places in the Roanoke Valley, but if I’m promising the best, I want to only share the very best. So I’ve whittled my list of good pizza places down to this list of the best of the best can’t-miss pizza spots.
Bobby’s Hot and Cheesy – Best all around pizza experience
If I absolutely had to choose one favorite pizza place in Roanoke, it would have to be Bobby’s Hot and Cheesy.
Bobby’s serves delicious pizzas in a welcoming, vibrant little restaurant. The dining room is casual enough to be welcoming for families while also feeling cozy enough for a date.
They have small personal size pizzas as well as large pizzas that are perfect for sharing. They also offer pizza flights where you can sample three mini pizzas for only $15. Talk about a brilliant idea! It’s the perfect solution if you aren’t sure which pizza to get and also makes a great appetizer for sharing.
You’ll also find a rotating menu of other delicious sides including salads, wings, calzones, and most recently charcuterie. All of it is delicious.
Bobby’s doesn’t have a huge menu; instead they have a finely crafted selection of specialty pizzas, though you are also welcome to design your own. Our current favorites are Meataly and Homeslice.
Eating at Bobby’s also comes with a big side benefit. Connected to Bobby’s and run by the same owners is Bubblecake, an amazing cupcake bakery that also carries cookies, specialty candies, and a few other fresh baked treats.
If you like sweets, you have to try Bubblecake. Just like Bobby’s, everything is delicious and choosing which of the fun cupcake flavors to try is half the fun.
The combination of pizza and cupcakes makes this a particularly great spot for any kind of quick celebration.
Bobbys and Bubblecake do have one funny quirk that can be both good and bad. They love to change things up; the menu, decor, and layout frequently change. It’s great that things are constantly being updated and there are often new things to try. But it can also be frustrating when some of your old favorites are no longer on the menu. But no matter what changes they make, they always have plenty of delicious pizzas.
Benny Marconi’s – Best pizza by the slice
If you’re looking to grab a quick slice of pizza, Benny Marconi’s is the place for you. Benny’s sells giant slices of pizza that are hot and delicious and ready in minutes.
Benny’s is located in the heart of downtown Roanoke on Campbell Ave, tucked away in a sliver of a historic building. Whether you’re dining in or picking up pizza to go, you’ll order at the counter and then they call your name when your pizza is ready.
To keep things speedy, they have a limited selection of pizza toppings available each day. They always have cheese and pepperoni slices and typically have 2-4 other specials as well including combos like garlic mushroom, siracha sausage, and macaroni and cheese.
There’s also a pretty impressive drinks cooler with pretty much any soda you can imagine as well as juices, Gatorade, and a few beer options.
The New York style slices are surprisingly good considering how cheap and fast it is. A single slice is plenty for most people and if you do opt to order a whole pizza to go, be prepared for the pizza box to be too big to fit through your door!
The restaurant has a very laidback, casual atmosphere and we love to bring our kids here. Just be aware there is very limited seating in the dining area and it does fill up occasionally during busy times.
Benny’s also has several other locations nearby including Benny Marzano’s in Blacksburg (the original location), Benny Adelina’s at Smith Mountain Lake, and the newly opened Benny Soldato’s in Bedford,
New York Pizza – Best New York style pizza
I mean, the name says it all really. If you love a classic New York slice, New York Pizza in Vinton has it. Offering dine in, carryout, and delivery, New York Pizza is a no-frills pizza restaurant run by a local Italian family.
This is our go-to choice for takeout pizza. The crust is delicious, the toppings are flavorful, and the pizzas are big. (On that note, be sure to pay attention to the pizza sizes when ordering. A ‘baby’ pizza here is like a small at other restaurants, while a ‘small’ is more like a typical medium, etc.)
They offer all the classic pizza toppings you’d expect. And they also carry thick crust Sicilian style pizzas as well as subs if you want to change things up. But you really can’t go wrong with their classic Neopolitan pizzas.
The same owners recently opened a second restaurant in SW Roanoke called Tony Avellino’s with the same great pizza if you are closer to that side of town.
Mellow Mushroom – Best crust
Mellow Mushroom serves delicious pizza with a thick flavorful crust and lots of tasty specialty pizzas.
You can find Mellow Mushroom pizzerias in many cities throughout the southeast and they are slowly starting to expand into other parts of the country. But Mellow Mushroom really doesn’t feel like a chain restaurant. Every single location has it’s own unique colorful decor and special menu options. And more importantly, the pizza doesn’t taste like other chain pizza restaurants.
Mellow Mushroom Roanoke has a kitschy 1970s vibe inside. There is a full bar with plenty of drink options including draft beers and cocktails in addition to the dining area.
Mellow Mushroom pizza is really all about the crust. The specialty pizzas include all kinds of interesting flavor combos and the toppings all taste fresh and delicious.
But it’s the crust that makes this pizza stand out. It’s thick, chewy, and finished with delicious garlic butter and parmesan cheese. Allegedly the secret ingredient is molasses, but whatever the reason, this dough is unlike any other pizza dough.
They also carry vegan and gluten free pizzas if you have special dietary needs. This location does not have a separate kids menu like many Mellow Mushrooms do, but you can probably get by with just splitting a pizza as a family anyway.
Aside from the pizza, everything else we’ve tried at Mellow Mushroom has also been delicious. I personally recommend the wings, the meatballs, and the pretzels which taste a lot like that amazing crust.
On the Rise – Best Breakfast pizza
If you haven’t yet had breakfast pizza, you are seriously missing out. Sure, lots of us have had leftover pizza from the fridge for breakfast but I’m talking about fresh, delicious, respectably breakfasty pizza.
On the Rise is a local bakery in downtown Roanoke right on Market Street. It has an amazing location in a historic building packed with character. There is also a second On the Rise location in Grandin Village that carries the same great baked goods along with a small selection of handmade gifts.
Most mornings at On the Rise, you’ll find a selection of two or three different breakfast pizza options all ready to be heated up for you. Each pizza includes scrambled eggs, cheese, and other toppings like bell peppers, sausage, and jalapeno on top of a thick, chewy crust. Every one we’ve tried has been delicious.
While you’re enjoying breakfast, you might also want to grab a few of their fresh pastries. The muffins here are the best I’ve ever tasted.
They also serve more traditional pizzas at lunchtime with the same unique crust and I highly recommend those as well.
Fork in the Alley – Best wood-fired pizza
Fork in the Alley offers delicious pizzas baked in a wood fired brick oven along with burgers, sandwiches, salads, and specialty hot dogs
The restaurant is a tiny little place literally tucked away in an alley in the Crystal Spring section of Roanoke. When you eat here, you have your pick of settings. There’s the dark tavern-like interior where you’ll find the bar and a few tables, the larger sunroom area where you’re protected from the weather but get tons of natural light, and the open patio for dining outdoors when the weather is nice.
Pizzas from Fork come out with that signature almost-but-not-quite charred crust that you can only get from a real brick oven and every topping tastes incredibly fresh and flavorful.
Lago Pizza – Deep dish pizza
You may notice that I didn’t include the ‘Best’ designation for this deep dish pizza. The truth is I’m not a fan of deep dish pizza – it’s the one kind of pizza that I just don’t love. So I haven’t personally tried Lago Pizza’s deep dish yet.
But I wanted to include it here because I know there are those who absolutely love deep dish pizza and it isn’t always the easiest thing to find here in the South. Their deep dish gets great reviews so if that’s your thing, it’s definitely worth a try.
I have an old friend who’s a deep dish lover who is coming to visit later this spring. While she’s here, we’re definitely going to hit up Lago and after that I can give a more thorough review.
After extensive research and thorough taste-testing, I feel quite confident these are the spots for the best pizza around Roanoke. But if you have other options you think we may have somehow missed, I’m more than happy to give them a try!
In the meantime, if you’re in the Roanoke area, I’s suggest you check out our post on the 30+ best things to do in Roanoke. It includes all kinds of recommendations for exploring the city, outdoor activities, and more great food recommendations.
And if all that pizza has you ready for some exercise, we also have a whole list of the best hikes near Roanoke.


The same genetic trait that results in healthy meat item also creates a tender, moist, flavorful product as well. A cross-section of Belgian Blue meat will contain more and shorter muscle fibers than traditional beef. This significantly contributes to meat tenderness. Since there is minimal fat content, Belgian Blue beef has greater moisture content. These two items together help establish a base for an exceptionally flavorful product.
The final judgment as to the success of a beef breed lies in the hands of you, the consumer. Today's beef consumer is more health conscious than ever before and is increasingly educated about the food and beef industry. Belgian Blue Beef purebred meats have been repeatedly shown to contain less fat, less calories, and less cholesterol than skinless baked chicken breast, while still maintaining all the high nutritional elements for which beef is renowned.

Here’s a little of what I teach you in my free course:

is right for the photo. This means that the food will be fresh when it's time for the imagine as opposed to dried from the solid lighting. If using cut fruit, wait till the last possible min to suffice and afterwards the stylist can make use of glycerin or ice to make it look even much better in the picture.
Food photography is far more compared to merely taking an image of a dish. It's a synergy in between the chef, photographer and also food stylist. When picking a photographer for your food advertising products, you'll want one that is experienced in photographing food and also items.


The decor here is very Ralph Lauren-y, with all leather, paintings of horses,plaid and wood.
When I arrived, before I even entered the door there is a gentleman there that greets you and checks your name on a list. I sat at the chic cozy bar area until my other guest arrived.
Fried olives, nuts and garlic chips are brought out to you with your drink as you wait for your table. Really tasty. Once the table is ready the hostess came and escorted us downstairs to our table.
I'm excited to dine here again, the customer service was great! I ordered the pigs in a blanket and the roasted chicken with mash potatoes. Great food!!!!


A couple of notes about the ingredients I've used:
- The creaminess comes from cooking the mushies in butter & adding cream. I'm sure you could make it without dairy . . . . not sure what you'd call it tho . . .
- I've used portobello & swiss brown mushrooms in this recipe as they were cheap & abundant & looked the best when I went shopping.
- I used a 500g packet of gnocchi which I bought from the supermarket. This is the first time Ruchita has cooked gnocchi so I wanted it to be easy peasy for her. Feel free to make your own.
- the 2 ingredients which take the flavour through the roof are thyme & white miso.
Even tho it's winter here & the thyme in the garden is looking a little lacklustre I picked just a few sprigs from each of 4 different plants & O<>M<>G it's the best.
I've chosen to use white miso as I think it enhances the delicious earthiness of the mushrooms.
I think dark miso would be too overwhelming but if you try it, let me know how it goes.
Miso is very salty hence only 1 teaspoon seems ideal for this volume.

Food is a critical component of every ARCC program. As a result, we spend a great deal of time on food selection and preparation to ensure a delicious and well-balanced menu. The food varies from program to program, but on all programs, students will have delicious, healthy and filling meals and a variety of snacks between meals.
Depending on program location, groups have the option to make their own meals, eat in restaurants, small hotels/guesthouses or in the local communities. When possible we strive for our students to be involved in the cooking process. In these cases, students are divided into cook groups which are then responsible for the selection, preparation, and cleanup of the group’s meals. The food we provide is selected with an emphasis on freshness and variety. We always make sure to have extra food to ensure that no one is hungry. Vegetarian and other diets can generally be accommodated.

Every year there’s some new food trend that seems to sweep the internet. Remember when cupcakes were all the rage? Rainbow grilled cheeses? How about the cronut? But some meals are bigger than trends. And most of those long-lasting dishes can be found in a few of the oldest restaurants in the world.
In a time when restaurants seem to come and go with the seasons, there are a few standout stars that have somehow stood the test of time. And we’re not talking a few decades — we’re talking a few centuries.
NetCredit, a financial services provider, waded into the historical waters and created a list of the oldest restaurants in more than 115 countries around the globe. To reach its conclusion, it simply used the qualification that a restaurant is “still serving today,” meaning it could have changed hands, names, or gone through renovations since its opening day. It then looked through records and historical data to formalize its list of the 10 oldest restaurants in the world.
Coming in at the number 10 spot is Gostilna Gastuž, a restaurant that has been serving food in Slovenia since 1467. According to NetCredit, it’s long been famous for mushroom soup and buckwheat porridge.
Honke Owariya in Japan landed at number nine on the list. It’s been doling out its famous soba made with mushrooms, egg, shrimp tempura, nori, leeks, and daikon since 1465.
The eighth-oldest restaurant on the list is Hotel Gasthof Löwen, located in Liechtenstein. It’s served happy patrons veal with vegetables since 1380. It’s closely followed by the seventh-oldest restaurant, The Sheep Heid Inn in Scotland, which has served steak and roasted mushrooms since 1360.
In 1345, the sixth-oldest restaurant, La Couronne in France, opened its doors to offer duck, roasts, and escargot. And in 1198, the fifth-oldest restaurant, The Brazen Head in Ireland, opened to serve bangers and mash.
In the fourth-oldest spot sits Ma Yu Ching’s Bucket Chicken House in China, which first served buckets of chicken in 1153. Just a few years earlier, in 1147, the third-oldest restaurant, The Old House in Wales, began feeding customers pies with chips and peas.
And, in 1146, the second-oldest restaurant, Wurstkuchl in Germany, cooked its sausages and sauerkraut. While these places all certainly have a rich (and tasty) history, none quite match the length of St. Peter Stiftskulinarium in Austria, which opened way back in the year 803 and served tafelspitz (boiled beef with minced apple and horseradish). NetCredit put the restaurant’s age in perspective when it wrote that it served “both Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Clint Eastwood.”
Looking to dine at the oldest restaurant in the United States? You can, by heading to Newport, Rhode Island, and making a reservation at The White Horse Tavern, which a pirate named William Mayes opened in 1673. Sure, it may not be as old as the others, but as someone who grew up just a few miles away from the restaurant, I can tell you it’s just as tasty. Check out the entire list of oldest restaurants, along with all the research that went into this unique project, here.

When my friend Julie became a mom she was looking for quick, healthy, meal options that didn’t contain any artificial sweeteners or additives. She began making smoothies and pretty soon the idea for her amazing company, The Purple Beet, was born. Now, alongside her husband Ryan and two sweet kiddos, Julie offers smoothie packages that contain only real ingredients. All you have to do is blend them with one cup of a liquid of your choice and that’s it. And there is no ice required because the packages come to you frozen! You can sign up for a smoothie subscription on the website! So when Julie asked me about collaborating with her I was super excited. I get to play with fruits and vegetables and sample 8 different smoothie flavors?! Yes please. We brainstormed the look we were going for, Julie & Ryan created a custom backdrop for this shoot, and then we spent hours carefully styling the ingredients that go into each smoothie recipe. It was so bright and colorful and I always love playing with food ;)
My friend Julie is building a really amazing business - with the help of her whole family ;) The Purple Beet is a company built to make sure you have quick, easy and healthy food options ready to go at a moments notice. I am especially excited about her new smoothie subscription service that allows you to select your favorite smoothie flavors and have them delivered to your door. Keep them in the freezer until you are ready to go. I can’t wait to make this a part of my routine and you should definitely check it out. We’ll be working with Julie and her family again in the coming months and I can’t wait to share more!


Oligomers in food packaging
Oligomers are substances consisting of a few monmeric units, which can be formed during the production of polymers or when polymers interact with aqeuous solvents. As oligomers can migrate from polyester food packaging to food, they must be included in the risk assessment for the respective food contact materials. Maria Hoppe investigates a number of polyesters used as food packaging materials. The aim is to identify the oligomers in different polyesters, assess their migration behaviour and derive their diffusion characteristics.
