We’re excited to partner with registered dietitian and cookbook author Kylie Sakaida for IFPA 2025. To kick things off, Kylie created a bright, weeknight-friendly Lemon Balsamic Chicken, Sweet Corn & Avocado Salad featuring the Fresh Express American Blend – proof that adding more greens can be quick, delicious, and doable.

At the show, Kylie will share her journey into nutrition and why she’s teamed up with Fresh Express to make eating well simpler and more accessible. She’ll offer practical tips for working more greens into everyday meals with ease – and attendees will receive a signed copy of her cookbook (while supplies last).

💡 5 Simple Nutrition Tips from Kylie Sakaida

Kylie shared easy, real-world tips that make it more approachable to eat greens – perfect for today’s busy lifestyles:

Veggies, but make it easy
Getting enough vegetables doesn’t have to mean hours in the kitchen! Fresh Express salad kits like the Sweet Kale Chopped Kit or Sunflower Crisp Chopped Kit take care of the chopping, washing, and mixing, so all that’s left is actually eating them. Whether you’re adding a side salad to dinner or turning a kit into a full meal, it’s one of the simplest ways to eat more greens.

More greens, less cleanup
One of the biggest barriers to eating more vegetables is the cleanup. With Fresh Express, there’s no extra prep, no salad spinner, and barely any mess. Just open the bag, mix, and you’re good to go! It’s a small thing that makes a big difference during a busy week.

Make it a meal
A salad can be more than a side. It can be the whole meal! Look for kits that have fiber-rich greens or crunchy add-ins like seeds and nuts. Throw in a quick protein like canned beans, leftover chicken, or hard-boiled eggs, and you’ve got something that keeps you full and satisfied.

Shortcuts that don’t feel like shortcuts
Not every meal has to be from scratch. Grabbing a Fresh Express Chopped Kit on a busy night is a simple way to get in something fresh and flavorful without overthinking it. Pair it with whatever you already have in your fridge, like frozen pizza, boxed pasta, or rotisserie chicken, and suddenly dinner feels a little more balanced.

Flavors that make greens more craveable
Healthy eating shouldn’t feel like a chore. Fresh Express kits come in flavors like Creamy Goddess or Orange Sesame, which help keep things interesting. When salads taste good, it’s easier to eat them regularly and actually enjoy it.
