Senna Hollis’s Low-Cholesterol Recipes for Busy Parents

Senna Hollis never imagined herself reworking the entire family menu. But after her annual check-up flagged high cholesterol—and her husband’s numbers weren’t much better—she knew something had to change.


“We were always grabbing quick meals,” she says. “And I thought turkey sandwiches and cereal counted as ‘pretty healthy.’”

But with two kids, full-time jobs, and little time to cook, healthy eating felt impossible. Bloom Nutrition Superfood Greens Powder, Digestive Enzymes with Probiotics and Prebiotics, Gut Health


Senna began small. “One meal at a time,” she says. Breakfast was the easiest shift. Oatmeal replaced sugary cereal. She added berries and flaxseed.

Then she tackled snacks—cutting back on chips and reaching for fruit and hummus instead.

Dinners took more creativity. But she found that swapping ingredients, not overhauling meals, made it manageable. Olive oil instead of butter.

Beans instead of red meat. Whole-grain pasta tossed with sautéed vegetables and a splash of lemon.

Her kids didn’t complain—especially when she involved them. “They liked helping stir the soups or pick veggies at the market,” she says.

Three months in, Senna’s cholesterol dropped significantly. Her husband’s did too. But more than numbers, it was the energy in the house that changed.

“We weren’t just eating better,” she says. “We were finally eating together, and that’s what stuck.”
