Looking for more options? Add pumpkin to pancake batter, oatmeal, smoothies or your kid's favorite chil

    8 steps to mindful eating.

    This ancient practice can transform the way you think about food and set the stage for a lifetime of healthy eating. Like most of us, you’ve probably eaten something in the past few hours.
