Hi There, I'm Priscilla Lawrence!

Based in California but born and raised in France, I welcome you to Sprinkled With Balance where I share elevated nutrient-rich recipes that aren't overly restrictive, complicated, or boring! I'm a mom of two, former certified nutritionist, recipe developer, and food photographer.

I'm Priscilla Lawrence

I was born and raised in France, in the suburbs of Paris but I have been living in San Diego, California for over 20 years now. Long story short, in the middle of university where I studied foreign languages with the goal of becoming a sports journalist (soccer, aka football is my favorite!), I decided to move to London, England to improve my English, and then life happened... I ended up in California, sunny San Diego to be exact, and never moved back home. I'm married my American husband Ryan, who is the second half of Sprinkled With Balance, and we are parents of two amazing kids, Cleo (9) and Lennon (7).

I'm a Former Certified Nutritionist

Growing up in France great food is a huge part of my identity! I also have had a long history of falling for diet culture. I actually worked for a major corporate weight loss company for almost 8 years, and helped hundreds of people lose weight and maintain their weight loss. Nutrition is something I've always been interested in, but the timing to pursue more learning was never right... Until 2020, the year I started rethinking my purpose, and I decided to go for it! I became a Certified Nutritionist, Nutrition Coach as well as a Certified Personal Trainer from ISSA. (because I was not coaching directly, I decided to not renew my certifications in 2025)

I have my own weight gain/loss/gain/loss story and I know that many people understand the struggles, which is why I want to encourage you to eat nutritious foods in an approachable way, feel amazing, move your body and let go of deprivation, guilt, and unsustainable diet "rules". Eating should be fun, not crazy restrictive, or boring! It's all about finding the balance that works for you!

Because eating "healthy" doesn't look the same for everybody, but I truly believe that it doesn't mean you can or can't eat certain foods. Truly, all foods fit in a balance diet, remembering that some are more nutrient-dense, and some enjoyed in more moderation than others. But everyone is different and listening to your body is important.

Why Sprinkled With Balance 

Sprinkled With Balance is here to inspire you to cook delicious nutritious meals but I truly believe in balance, and that treats should be included in a diet full of nutrient-dense ingredients in order to achieve a healthy relationship with food. Eating nutritious should not be intimidating, hard or restrictive. It should, in fact, be normal, but unfortunately it isn't always accessible to everyone and is tainted by diet culture. Unless you are doing a short elimination diet for health purposes or have allergies and sensitivities, they are absolutely no reason to be scared of food groups. And as a Nutrition Coach, I want to show you how you can eat delicious meals and let go of the unnecessary guilt that diet culture has imprinted into our brains! Let's get cooking and have fun in the kitchen!

Food-Allergy Mom

I'm a food-allergy mom, my son is highly allergic to peas and most nuts (except peanuts and almonds). You won't see a lot of those in my cooking as cross contamination is a danger in our home. Food allergies awareness is very important to me as I feel that it's not talked about enough, and many people don't really know that they can be life-threatening. Honestly, before it became a part of our family, I didn't truly realize the life-changing impact allergies have on families, which is why you will see me talk about it from time to time!

Thank you so much for being here! I'm very much looking forward to connecting with you!
