Ramen noodles

My Mimi (grandma) sometimes sends newspaper clippings that remind her of me.  A recent letter contained this full page spread devoted to ramen noodles making a comeback.  Growing up, ramen noodles (with cheddar cheese on top, to boot!) were my go-to afterschool snack for a solid six years.  Though I’ve cut back since then…and switched brands to the steam-cooked rice noodle variety…and usually add plenty of veggies, beans, and fish…they’ve never really gone out of style in my mind.  I’m excited to try this particularly hip ramen recipe, Ramen Noodle Sushi. 

About Jennifer

I am a registered dietitian with the National Fisheries Institute, so fish is my nutrition forte. I earned my BA in Communication from Southwestern University, just outside of Austin, TX. During college, one of my very favorite evening outings was a leisurely trip to the grocery market. My passion for food was undeniable, so I combined both of my interests by earning my MS in Nutrition Communication from Tufts University in Boston, MA. As well as my Registered Dietitian (RD) credential through the University of Delaware.

Beyond reading scientific studies about docosahexaenoic acid and selenium, I love to entertain, travel, watch reality TV, grill outdoors, and go to spin class. I live in Kailua, HI on the island of Oahu where my husband serves as a US Marine Corps JAG.

People in Hawaii eat more fish and shellfish than average, but over 80 percent of typical Americans don't eat seafood at least twice per week. Doctors and dietitians like me say that's the goal, so BlogAboutSeafood is here to show you just what plenty of seafood looks like in an RD's real-life diet.
