PODCAST EPISODE SHOW NOTES

A WIC mom who found ways to turn her WIC-approved foods into easy, budget-friendly recipes is turning heads! In case you are not familiar, WIC is the US Department of Agriculture’s Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, a program that is designed to offer nutritious food and nutrition education to income-eligible pregnant, breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, and to infants and children up to the age of five. 

There are only a number of very specific WIC-approved food items which can make it a bit tough for participants when putting together meals at home. In this episode, I interviewed Tiktok mom Sunni Rudd, a WIC participant who has created a committed space to share helpful recipe ideas that include foods provided by the WIC program and baby-led weaning friendly.
