🇮🇹 Dr. Joe’s Homemade Italian Meat Sauce 🇮🇹

Around here, good food doesn’t have to be complicated…but it should be made with real ingredients, plenty of flavor, and a little love.
Today, Dr. Joe is making his homemade Italian meat sauce…the kind that simmers, fills the whole house with that amazing smell, and makes you start thinking about dinner long before it’s ready.

Here’s what goes in:
🍅 4 cans crushed Italian tomatoes
🥩 4 lbs ground beef (Dr. Joe prefers the higher-fat, 80% lean variety)
🧅 1 Vidalia onion, finely diced
🧄 Fresh chopped garlic
🍄 Finely chopped mushrooms
🥕 1 whole carrot for a touch of natural sweetness
🌿 LOTS of fresh chopped basil
🧂 Salt & pepper to taste
🌭 Sweet Italian sausage, sautéed first and then added to the sauce
Let it all come together low and slow.
And when it’s time to serve?
Freshly grated Pecorino Romano on top. Because…Italian. 🇮🇹
Real food. Real ingredients. A meal meant to be enjoyed.
From Dr. Joe’s kitchen to yours. Buon appetito!

Yo, THRIVE Tribers! Dr. Joe is back with another THRIVE food meal. 😎
Tonight’s dinner came with a little extra love.
The chicken cutlets were made by Dr. Joe’s mom, and the summertime veggies came from our friend and local business owner Craig Gates who has a habit of showing love by sharing summertime veggies.
We lightly fried the cutlets in olive oil, sautéed the veggies in butter, and Joe topped it all off with an Allagash White mixed with Polar Toasted Coconut Seltzer.
Good food, good people, and a little summertime generosity.
Cheers!

It was a true pleasure having our amazing Mayor Barney Seney and Gary O. from WINY Radio stop by Botta Medical Aesthetics & Wellness this morning. We were proud to present a donation to help bring the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund Wall That Heals to our great town of Putnam in September. ❤️🇺🇸

Our usual Sunday dinner looked a little different tonight.
Instead of cooking at home, Joe and I enjoyed dinner together at Blackstone in Putnam. A healthy lifestyle is not about avoiding restaurants or trying to be perfect. It is about creating habits that support your health while still making room for good food, connection, and experiences you enjoy.
Balance is part of the lifestyle.

Chuck’s story does not begin with the 190 pounds he lost. It begins with the honesty to say he is a food-aholic.
When Chuck started our THRIVE program almost 2 years ago at 465 pounds, he was short of breath and had difficulty walking. He had also spent much of his adult life doing what so many people have done; losing weight, regaining it, and beginning again.
For the past 21 months, Chuck has been eating real food and learning a different way to understand hunger, nourishment, and his relationship with food.
In a climate where weight loss is often reduced to the latest medication, Chuck’s story reminds us that medication, when appropriate, is only one helpful tool. Lasting change requires education, support, honest self-reflection, and the willingness to live differently over time.
When Chuck says he has “counted nothing", he does not mean that nothing was required of him. He means that he stopped living by calories, points, and complicated formulas. Instead, he learned to prioritize real food, protein, healthy fats, and choices he could continue making.
His result is exceptional, and it is his individual result, not a promise of what someone else will lose. But the most meaningful part of his story cannot be measured only in pounds. It is the distance between a man who struggled to walk and the man standing before this room, offering hope to someone else.
Chuck shared his story at one of our free THRIVE community seminars.
Our next seminar will be held on August 26 at BMAW.
Come learn how THRIVE approaches weight loss through real food, education, individualized support, and medication when appropriate.
Space is limited.
