Fuel Your Spring Wellness with Dietitian’s Choice Picks
Each quarter, I highlight a few of my favorite products around the store with the Dietitian’s Choice tag — items that make it easier to build balanced meals, try something new, or simply enjoy your food a little more.
This spring season, we’re focusing on a mix of local favorites, convenient options, and fun treats, all of which can fit into your routine in a practical way.
A Local Staple: Parish Rice
There’s something special about having a local product like Parish Rice right here in our stores. Rice is a pantry staple for many families across the Gulf Coast, and it’s a versatile base for everything from simple weeknight meals to more traditional dishes.
Parish Rice has 53% more protein and low glycemic index. Pair it with your traditional family favorite meals, or use it as the foundation for bowls, stir fries, or side dishes. It’s one of those ingredients that’s always good to have on hand.
Convenient Protein: Julian Bakery Pro Granola
For busy mornings or quick snacks, Julian Bakery Pro Granola is an easy way to add a boost of protein. It works well on its own, but it’s also good layered with yogurt or kefir for a balanced breakfast or snack.
Keeping options like this on hand can make it easier to put something together quickly without skipping a meal.
Everyday Nutrition: Dietitian Picks on the Dairy Aisle
Dairy foods continue to be a simple way to add nutrients like protein, calcium, and vitamin D to your day. This quarter, we’re highlighting items like kefir and single-serve milk, which are easy to grab whether you’re at home or on the go.
Kefir is a fermented dairy drink that can be a nice addition to your routine, especially if you’re looking to mix up your usual yogurt or smoothie options.
Fun Protein Moment with Shamrock Farms Rockin’ Protein
Of course, part of enjoying food is making room for a little fun. The Shamrock Farms Rockin’ Protein Shakes are a spring favorite that is great all the benefits of milk plus additional protein. Take them to the gym or on a road trip for a satisfying snack.
From local staples like rice, to convenient protein options, to everyday dairy and seasonal treats, these Dietitian’s Choice items are all about making your routine a little easier — and a little more enjoyable.
Look for the Dietitian’s Choice tag throughout the store to find these items and more ideas for building simple, balanced meals.
