Welcome to Sunshine & Sprouts Nutrition! I'm Sandra Carper, a nutritionist from St. Petersburg, FL with a passion for helping people discover how powerful plants can be.

For the past 12 years, I've been on a mission to help people feel healthier, happier, and more energized through the foods they eat. I've seen firsthand that eating more plants doesn't have to be complicated or restrictive—it can be simple, delicious, and something you genuinely enjoy.

I created Sunshine & Sprouts Nutrition to make plant-based eating approachable for everyone, whether you're just beginning your journey or looking for fresh inspiration. My goal is to provide practical nutrition tips, easy recipes, and evidence-based information that help you make lasting changes one meal at a time.

I believe every bite is an opportunity to nourish your body, support your health, and enjoy amazing food. This website is a place where you'll find encouragement, education, and simple ideas to help you add more plants to your plate—without perfection or pressure.

I hope Sunshine & Sprouts Nutrition inspires you to discover just how good healthy eating can feel.

Here's to more sunshine, more sprouts, and a healthier, happier you.
