Team USA snowboarder Jake Vedder knows what it’s like to be at the top of his sport, but also knows the dedication and hard work it takes to get there. Training and competing to make it back to the Olympics in 2026, Jake always hydrates and recovers with low-fat chocolate milk because he knows the crucial role diet plays in his performance.

Does the new year have you rethinking what's for dinner?

⚠️Remember food groups exist for a reason!⚠️

➡️ Each provides unique benefits that foods in the other groups may not offer.

While you're increasing your vegetable and fruit intake, don't forget what critical nutrients dairy brings to the table. 🥛 Choosing a variety of foods and finding balance is important when crafting a healthy diet.

Outside: 🌨💨🥶
Inside: ✨🥛⚡️🐄

While outside the milking parlor during a Michigan winter might be frightful, the cows inside are relaxing and producing nutrient-rich milk!

Cows are milked 2-3 times a day depending on the farm. The entire process only takes 5-7 minutes before they return to their pen for a buffet of fresh food and a midday snooze. 💤

Have you heard the good news?

A recent article from the @WashingtonPost explains how our beloved friend (🧀) may have been misunderstood.

“Cheese is packed with nutrients like protein, calcium and phosphorus, and can serve a healthy purpose in the diet,” says Lisa Young, an adjunct professor of nutrition at New York University.

➡️ Research shows that even full-fat cheese won’t necessarily make you gain weight or give you a heart attack. It also doesn’t raise or reduce your risk for chronic diseases, such as heart disease and Type 2 diabetes, and some studies show it might even be protective.

Is eating more good-for-you foods (+🥗🍌🥛🥩) one of your 2023 goals?

Dairy farmers ensure their animals receive the nutrients they need to stay healthy by working with nutritionists who specially formulate diets for cows, heifers and calves!

Looking for a last minute appetizer for your holiday festivi-cheese? 🎁🧀 You can’t go wrong topping crusty sourdough with creamy ricotta and hot honey!

#RG @holistic.foodie RICOTTA CROSTINI WITH FIGS & PROSCIUTTO: if you need a last minute appetizer idea, let this be IT! Creamy lemon ricotta slathered on a toasted sourdough baguette, topped with fresh figs + prosciutto + evoo + hot honey + fresh thyme. It’s salty, sweet and a little spicy 😍. Here’s the basic how-to! If you can’t find fresh figs, try with a dollop of fig jam instead.

INGREDIENTS:
1 baguette, sliced
Extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
3/4 cup ricotta (room temperature)
Zest from half a lemon 🍋
6-8 figs, sliced thin
5 slices prosciutto, torn
Fresh thyme (about 1-2 sprigs)
Flaky salt
Hot honey, for drizzling

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet and rub with olive oil. Place in the oven to toast until lightly browned, about 6-8 minutes.
In a small bowl whisk together the ricotta and lemon zest.
Slather ricotta on the crostinis and add fig slices and prosciutto.
Drizzle with olive oil + hot honey and top with fresh thyme and flaky salt. Enjoy!

“The first time I started drinking chocolate milk was in high school,” said Detroit Lion Frank Ragnow. “After games, the offensive linemen would focus on consuming high-quality protein to refuel, and dairy was a big part of the equation. Your muscles need protein to function and do their best. Low-fat chocolate milk has been part of my recovery strategy since.”
