Welcome to my weekly meal roundup, where I share the easy and healthy meals I enjoyed throughout the week! I’ve been focusing on keeping my meals high in protein to fuel my days with sustained energy. From a satisfying scrambled egg breakfast bowl to delicious chicken salad and a delish spring lemon salmon, each meal was packed with protein to keep me feeling nourished and they are all SUPER easy to make. I’m excited to share some of my go-to meals, including my meal prep egg bites (IYKYK), “kitchen sink” stir-fry bowl and more!! Whether you’re looking for quick meal ideas or simply trying to boost your protein intake, I’ve got you covered! Let’s get into the recipes…
Only have 10 minutes to whip up breakfast? This Broccoli & Goat Cheese Breakfast Scramble is the perfect way to start your day! I used a mix of broccoli, bell pepper and chicken sausage for this recipe, but the best part is that you can really use any vegetables and meat you have on-hand! It’s a quick, protein-packed meal that will keep you energized throughout the morning.
These Protein Egg Bites are a game-changer for anyone looking to meal prep high-protein snacks or breakfasts! Packed with eggs, egg whites, and cottage cheese, each bite delivers about 5 grams of protein, making them a great way to fuel your day. With the option to add your favorite veggies, these egg bites are not only tasty but also incredibly customizable and easy to reheat for a quick, satisfying meal! Grab the recipe from my Weekly Protein Meal Prep linked above.
This Protein Chicken Salad is a perfect balance of lean protein and fresh, crunchy veggies, making it an ideal meal prep option for a healthy and satisfying lunch! I use Greek yogurt for a creamy texture and to pack in the protein. With over 30 grams of protein per serving, this chicken salad will keep you full and energized throughout the day!! I love serving it on sourdough bread or with crackers and veggie dippers. This recipe is also linked in my Weekly Protein Meal Prep. Grab it above!
My Poke-Style Chicken Bowl is a high-protein twist on my classic tofu poke bowl, swapping tofu for chicken breast sautéed in a mix of soy sauce and ginger. It has a base of jasmine rice, fresh romaine lettuce, shredded carrots, cucumber, and creamy avocado, all topped with a tangy Japanese BBQ sauce and sriracha mayo. It’s a flavor-packed meal that’s easy to customize and perfect for a quick, healthy lunch or dinner! One of my favorites!!
With spring in full swing, I’ve been all about light, vibrant dishes, and this Spring Lemon Salmon Bowl is exactly what I’ve been craving. It’s the perfect go-to meal when you need something fresh, nutritious, and quick! Ready in under 20 minutes, it’s the ideal balance of flavors and textures, making it the perfect meal for those busy days when you want something healthy without spending too much time in the kitchen!
My Ground Turkey Stir-Fry Bowl is the ultimate no-fuss, clean-out-the-fridge meal that comes together in a flash. There’s no set recipe here— This week I grabbed some Trader Joe’s turkey burgers for this recipe but you can use anything you have on hand! Just toss in whatever veggies you have, serve it over rice, and I ALWAYS finish it off with a generous drizzle of spicy chili crunch for that perfect kick. This quick and customizable dish is ideal for those busy end-of-week nights when you want a healthy, satisfying meal without any extra effort!
