Healthier eating doesn't mean skipping on taste. Join Peggy and the ABC Foods community to get recipes, exchange recipes and start eating healthier for a healthier tomorrow.

Peggy has had a lifelong interest in healthy cooking since her father was diagnosed with high cholesterol in the late 1950's. After retiring from the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in 2008, she returned to school to pursue her career in nutrition. Having graduated from the Nutritional Sciences program at the University of New Hampshire in 2011, she is looking forward to supporting nutritional awareness in her community.

She worked in the local schools to teach students about cultural diversity and how different cultures are affected by food availability, preparation and consumption. She taught cooking classes in coordination with local recreation departments in an after-school program. The program emphasized safety in the kitchen and making smart food choices.
