Mango & Almond Butter Protein Smoothie
Some days I go with berries, kale, protein powder, and lite almond milk. Other days, I spice it up a little more like with this creamy mango almond butter protein smoothie.
For this smoothie, I used mango, almond butter, vanilla Beast Sports protein powder, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and some flax seed for extra nutrients. I didn’t really know how the mango almond flavor combination would turn out, but it was awesome!
Chicken, Orange & Walnut Salad
I have been craving a different kind of salad lately and so I decided to make an Orange Walnut Chicken Salad.
It is a fantastic blend of flavors and super healthy for you.
A great combination of both protein and produce!
Egg & Turkey Stuffed Peppers
Another healthy, high protein meal that’s sure to satisfy even the hungriest person.
These stuffed peppers are FANTASTIC for breakfast…but, equally wonderful for lunch or dinnertime too, when you’re needing something FAST!
Omelet Wraps
When I wanted to impress someone with my culinary skills.. My go to was to whip up a fluffy omelette 🤷♀️😂
It’s not that hard !!
How to Make a Fluffy Like Omelet
You’ll need a strong whisking arm for sure. This French technique is part omelet, part souffle and when done correctly, it makes two or three eggs into a fluffy mass that will fill a whole dinner plate.
Here’s what to do:
Step 1: Separate the Eggs
You’ll want to crack each egg, and put egg whites in one bowl and the egg yolks in another.
Lightly scramble the yolks, season with salt and pepper and set ’em aside.
Step 2: Whisk It Good
You’re about to get down to the real work now. Take a whisk to the egg whites and don’t stop beating them until you have stiff peaks. (Okay, you can take breaks, but don’t give up!) Then gently fold your light-as-air whites together with the yolks.
Step 3: Cook to Perfection
Next, choose your cooking method. You can cook the fluffy mixture in a nonstick skillet on the stove top (melt butter, and cook mixture over medium-low until golden, then fold in half to serve) or in an oven-proof 8-inch skillet under the broiler (grease your skillet, add eggs, broil for 2 to 4 minutes and fold in half to serve).
It couldn’t be simpler!
Antioxidant Blueberry Protein Smoothie
It’s never too late to start eating more mindfully for health.
At least, that’s what I always tell my clients when I encourage them to add an extra serving of veggies to their diet.
It’s sometimes a lot easier for them to get their daily dose of health when it’s in smoothie form, especially this blueberry banana smoothie recipe.
It’s made with blueberries, banana, almond milk, almond butter, and ground flax seeds so it has everything you need from simple carbs, fiber, vitamins, minerals, healthy fats and protein.
Cinnamon Roll Protein Smoothie
This cinnamon roll breakfast smoothie is a healthy and delicious breakfast, packed with protein and fiber.
It’s sure to keep you full and satisfied all morning.
It’s incredibly flavorful and so delicious, too!
Raspberry Protein Smoothie
Raspberries are always a great addition to smoothies. These brilliant berries are also s’blended weight-loss foods. Anthocyanin pigments and flavonoid rheosmin (aka raspberry ketone) rev up metabolism and block fat absorption, while tiliroside (another flavonoid) moderates starch digestion to regulate blood sugar. Raspberries are also loaded with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agents, and they’re rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber. The best part is that they’re relatively low in natural sugar (as fruits go) and low in fat.

Vanilla & Coffee Protein Smoothie
Oh, friends, who doesn’t love a good coffee + vanilla + protein + smoothie situation?
Because I am always on TEAM COFFEE.
And if that coffee also comes with good flavor and filling ingredients to start my day, then so much the better.
But here’s the thing. Lots of coffee or chocolate smoothie recipes call for a banana. And I just don’t love bananas IN things.🤷♀️🤷♀️
Protein Fruit Bowls
Meals in a bowl are the perfect solution for using up leftovers or for whipping up simple, comforting breakfasts, lunches, or dinners from scratch.
The best bowls balance a combination of whole grains, lean protein, healthy fats, and fresh vegetables or fruit.
You can mix-and-match the ingredients to create an endless variety of flavorful fare.
The beauty of these bowl recipes is that you can substitute in any of the major nutrient sources depending on your individual taste and needs.
Think of these as building blocks, with whole grains, proteins, healthy fats, fruits, and vegetables acting as your key sources.
Then add in the spices or flavorings you like best, whether sweet or savory, tangy or tart.
Peanut Butter Protein Fluff
What is Protein Fluff?
I’m glad you asked!
Simply put, it is a homemade treat made from protein source or protein powder.
You may see some people call it protein fluff, some people call it protein ice cream or yogurt .
I prefer the term fluff myself because it isn’t quite the same creamy, dense consistency of ice cream.
Don’t get me wrong, it is still yummy!
You can substitute nonfat or lowfat yogurt for less calorics.
You can add 1/2 of scoop of flavored protein powder as well.
But I just want to make it known that ice cream consistency is not the goal here. 😂
Tuna Salad Lettuce Wraps
A LIGHT HIGH-PROTEIN LUNCH IDEA
This low carb tuna salad lettuce wraps are my go-to for lunch, or even an afternoon snack.
Like other tuna recipes, they’re high in protein and the lettuce wraps add a satisfying crunch to an otherwise soft texture.
Handheld foods are perfect when you’re short on time and on the move!
THE BEST KIND OF LETTUCE FOR LETTUCE WRAPS
I used iceberg leaf lettuce. You want to choose something with large leaves that you can wrap around the tuna salad. Romaine lettuce leaves also work perfectly too.
