The Beginning

The USU Dietetics Program began eons of years ago in fairy-tale land called Cache Valley.  Utah Pioneers planted thousands of edible plants... and one of those plants grew into the USU Dietetics Program ... ok ... not really.  But seriously, let's get real and put all the "food" on the table about this blog.


The birth of this blog started with a few basic principles:
1) USU Dietetics Program is doing some wildly innovative and awesome projects.
2) Our faculty and students are plain brilliant.
3) We need an avenue to share our brilliance.

And from this day on, our blog will do exactly that. "Dish Up!" will showcase our student's outstanding writing skills, their unique hands-on experiences and our program's visionary projects.

You will enjoy our blog if you:

• Are a past, present, or future student
• Are passionate about food (and seriously, who doesn't love food?), cooking and your health
• Are an inspired community member, in Cache Valley and beyond (many of our projects can be recreated anywhere!)
• Can read and laugh

Our goal is to Dish Up! "real-life" nutrition education through our projects and experiences. There are no prerequisites to enjoy and learn from our blog.  Today is the beginning of the USU Dietetics Blog: Dish Up!
