A healthy future starts with healthy kids, which is why empowering young people to engage in their nutrition is vital. This is huge mission for us at PrimaFoodie and one that we share with holistic health counselor and chef, Hilary Boynton. For our latest Chef Talk series, we spoke with Boynton about how we can all empower our young ones to understand our food system, engage in the kitchen, and know the ins and outs of what lands on our plates.

I've always admired the way Chef Amanda Ramirez elevates a dish, using only a few fresh ingredients to open up channels and profiles. She is also a wealth of knowledge when it comes to food and whole, clean ingredients.
