About Ellie...
Ellie Krieger is the host of the Food Network’s & Cooking Channel’s popular “Healthy Appetite” and author of the New York Times bestselling and IACP and James Beard Award winning THE FOOD YOU CRAVE: Luscious Recipes for a Healthy Life. Ellie’s most recent cookbook, SO EASY: Luscious Healthy Recipes for Every Meal of the Week, an immediate New York Times bestseller, is a collection of meal solutions for those of us who love food and want to eat well but struggle to make it happen amid life’s hectic pace. Ellie’s 2005 book Small Changes Big Results was a how-to on easy-to-live-with habit changes that yield optimal results.
Ellie has been at the forefront of First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” campaign from the beginning when Michelle personally invited her head up the “Healthy Kids Fair” at the White House in 2010. Ellie prepared a colorful array of fresh fruits and vegetables in the White House kitchen and challenged dozens of children from the community to “eat the rainbow” in produce every day; a simple and easy way to engage children in a healthier lifestyle. The fair was part of Obama’s “Healthier US Schools Challenge” and since then Ellie has teamed up with the School Nutrition Association and taken action at a grass roots level with her daughter’s New York City public school. On behalf of the Food Network she recently testified before the House Committee on Agriculture about nutrition, healthy eating and the growing epidemic of childhood obesity.
Ellie has created a customized online program — Healthy Living With Ellie Krieger — for her clients and fans to follow. The program incorporates all her favorite recipes and eating tips, plus 16 online tracking and goal-oriented tools. To perfect her program, Ellie drew on her background and experience helping hundreds of people eat better and lose weight...
