Hey there Salad Lover! 🥗 Let’s talk protein! It’s not just for bodybuilders and gym rats — protein is an absolute powerhouse for everyone. It helps keep you full longer (goodbye, mid-afternoon snack attack 👋), supports muscle recovery, and keeps your energy up throughout the day. Whether you're working out, wrangling kids, or just trying to make it to Friday with your sanity intact, getting enough protein is key to feeling your best. Lately, I’ve been all about high-protein meals that are actually delicious and super easy to whip up. I wanted to share three of my go-to recipes that are on repeat at my house: 🥒 Classic Tuna Pasta Salad – This one takes me straight back to my childhood summers. It's creamy, tangy, packed with protein, and perfect for meal prep. 🥑 Avocado Chicken Salad – I’m slightly (ok, totally) obsessed with avocado, and this chicken salad is everything. Creamy, zesty, and loaded with flavor – plus, it keeps me full for hours! 🍲 Creamy Instant Pot French Onion Chicken Soup – Comfort food meets protein power. It’s cozy, rich, and way easier to make than you’d think. I’ve made all three of these on busy weeknights and for weekend lunches – they’re that versatile. And bonus: the whole family loves them too (even the picky eaters!). 👉 Ready to dig in?
Try them out this week and let me know which one’s your fave! 💬 Stay strong, and stay fueled my friends!
