Do you have a cultural or diverse ethnic recipe to share? We’d love for you to share your recipe so that we can begin to build a recipe collection to be featured on the MAND Diversity and Inclusion webpage. Eligibility is open to dietetics professionals (RDNs, and NDTRs), dietetic interns and current dietetics students regardless of MAND or AND membership status.
Recipe submissions will be entered into a random drawing to WIN a $25 Etsy Gift Card! Please submit your recipe by March 31st.

Also feel free to email your favorite recipe to newsletter@eatrightma.org to be featured on the MAND blog in the upcoming months.

President's Welcome
Message from Outgoing MAND President, Sangeeta Pradhan
Hello RD and NDTR friends,
As my term as President draws to a close, I am filled with an immense sense of gratitude to be given the incredible honor of serving as your President. I ask for your indulgence as I share a few parting words with you.
Everything about food and nutrition inspires and energizes me. Do you feel the same way? This innocuous entity called food holds the power to transform health, to be a game changer, and to arguably change the course of chronic disease. Which itself is awe-inspiring!
And RDs are uniquely positioned to be stewards of that change!
