I am so excited to be joining iVillage as a guest coach for one of their cool Mealtime Makeover Community Challenges. It is going to be so much fun! Here is a little more about it and why you should sign up to join me.

iVillage is partnering with Bravo’s Top Chef All-Stars finalist, Antonia Lofaso, on a community challenge aimed at mobilizing millions of women around the country to cook healthier family meals.  Launched on August 29, this Mealtime Makeover Community Challenge is the latest in a successful line of iVillage signature community challenges, which to-date have rallied over a million women around causes ranging from childhood literacy to reaching financial success.  In addition, challenge participants can enter for a chance to win thousands of dollars’ worth of top-notch kitchen appliances to make cooking at home that much more fun, at http://www.ivillage.com/ivillage-kitchen-makeover-sweepstakes/8-z-374577.

I am so excited to be one of the people working on this challenge. My assignment is to help you make healthier snacks for your family and it will be sent out on September 9th. It would be so much fun if all of you signed up to join in! Even if you don’t do my assignment, throughout the entire meal makeover series acclaimed chef and former contestant in season four and the All-Stars season of Bravo’s Top Chef series, Antonia Lofaso, will provide daily guidance, recipes and creative tips throughout the digital challenge as lead coach.
