Eating at home provides more control over your nutrition and it saves money. 

That’s according to St. Louis Dairy Council Registered Dietitian Kelsey Bentlage. 

Not only can eating your own cooking help your nutrition goals, but it also helps create a welcoming family environment. 

Eating at home provides a great opportunity to prepare that comfort food you are craving. 

Bentlage has a few ideas for your next home-cooked meal. She also has a special recipe of the month to share at stldairycouncil.org.
