Happy Monday! It’s a fabulous day over here at Nutrition Happens – I’ve got a special recipe made for you from my beautiful and talented friend, (and Registered Dietitian) Shannan Monson! 

Shannan is the owner of Nutrition Simply, an online community she built empowering and inspiring those around her to simply feel good about themselves. (which is what we’re all about here – because good food = good mood!) The moment I connected with Shannan her passion for nutrition reflected across all aspects of her work. She balances work life with family life and every little detail in between so effortlessly – but isn’t afraid to get real with you about it. Her honesty about her struggles with nutrition in the past combined with the extensive knowledge she has today (and love for J.Crew) makes her basically like the ultimate best friend you didn’t know you were missing in your life. (Bonus points: she rocks a mad lip color and will inspire you to do the same!)
