Dietitian's Mac and Cheese Hack: A Simple Path to Healthy Eating

Registered Dietitian Steph Grasso, MS, RD, recently shared a simple yet effective method for maintaining a healthy relationship with food. In a short video posted on August 23, 2023, Grasso demonstrates how to enhance favorite meals with nutrient-rich ingredients instead of restricting them. The video, which has garnered over 11 million views, shows Grasso adding spinach and sausages to a bowl of mac and cheese.

The approach, according to Grasso, helps achieve a balance of carbs, protein, fiber, and fats, resulting in sustained energy and satisfaction. The video has sparked considerable online discussion, with many praising Grasso's practical approach to healthy eating.
