Fuel your body with protein, every time you eat!

Deciding what to fuel your body with can be tricky. I like to keep things simple, so I follow 1 rule. Fuel my body with at least 30 grams of protein, for every meal.

Here are a few meal suggestions that will keep your dinner plate at around 30 grams of protein:

1. Grilled Chicken Salad with Quinoa

• Ingredients:
  • 4 oz grilled chicken breast (around 26-28g protein)
  • ½ cup cooked quinoa (around 4-5g protein)
  • Mixed greens (spinach, arugula, etc.)
  • Cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and bell peppers
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil and vinegar dressing
• Protein Breakdown: Grilled chicken (26g) + quinoa (4g)

2. Greek Yogurt Parfait with Nuts and Berries

• Ingredients:
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (around 20g protein)
  • ¼ cup granola (around 4g protein)
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter (around 6g protein)
  • A handful of fresh berries (optional)
• Protein Breakdown: Greek yogurt (20g) + granola and almond butter (10g)

3. Turkey and Avocado Wrap

• Ingredients:
  • 4 oz sliced turkey breast (around 24g protein)
  • 1 whole wheat wrap (around 4g protein)

Each of these meals provides around 30 grams of protein while also offering a balance of healthy fats and carbs! Feel free to have fun with your meal choices so that you don’t get bored with the fuel you’re feeding your body!
