In this episode, I discuss the importance of consuming enough protein for muscle repair, growth, and overall recovery. I provide a protein diet plan to help listeners easily consume 150 to 200 grams of protein per day with delicious and simple meal ideas. The plan includes meals such as a protein-packed omelet for breakfast, a whey protein shake for a mid-morning snack, grilled chicken breast with quinoa for lunch, Greek yogurt with berries and almonds for an afternoon snack, and a sirloin steak with roasted vegetables for dinner. I also emphasize the importance of getting enough leucine, an amino acid critical for building muscle. Protein Diet Plan to Easily Get 150/200g of Protein/Day Breakfast Protein-Packed Omelet Ingredients: ● 3 eggs (18g protein) ● 1/2 cup egg whites (13g protein) ● 1/4 cup diced bell peppers ● 1/4 cup diced onions ● Spinach leaves ● Salt and pepper to taste Instructions: 1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg whites. 2. Sauté the bell peppers and onions in a non-stick pan until soft. 3. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. 4. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cook until set. 5. Season with salt and pepper. Total Protein: 31g Mid-Morning Snack Whey Protein Shake ● 1 scoop whey protein (25g protein) ● 1 cup coconut milk (1g protein) ● 1 banana (1g protein) Total Protein: 27 grams A mid-morning whey protein shake is quick, convenient, and effective for maintaining steady protein intake throughout the day. Adding a banana not only enhances the taste but also provides essential vitamins and minerals. Lunch Grilled Chicken Salad with Quinoa ● 6 oz grilled pasture raised (corn or soy free) chicken breast (40g protein) ● 1 cup quinoa (8g protein) ● Assorted veggies of your choice (2g protein) Total Protein: 50 grams For lunch, a grilled chicken salad with quinoa offers a balanced meal rich in protein, fibre, and essential nutrients. Quinoa is not only a great plant-based protein source but also adds a satisfying texture to your salad. Afternoon Snack Greek Yogurt with Berries and Almonds ● 1 cup Greek yogurt (20g protein) ● 1/4 cup mixed berries (0.5g protein) ● 1/4 cup almonds (6g protein) Total Protein: 26.5 grams A combination of Greek yogurt, berries, and almonds provides a nutritious and protein-packed snack. The berries add a burst of antioxidants, while almonds contribute healthy fats and additional protein. Dinner Steak with Roasted Vegetables ● 8 oz sirloin steak (52g protein) ● 1 cup broccoli (3g protein) ● 1 cup carrots (1g protein) Total Protein: 56 grams Dinner with steak and roasted vegetables offers a hearty and protein-rich meal. The sirloin steak ensures a significant protein intake, while the broccoli and carrots contribute essential vitamins and fiber. Evening Snack (Optional) Cottage Cheese with Fruit ● 1/2 cup cottage cheese (14g protein) ● 1/2 cup sliced peaches (0.5g protein) Total Protein: 14.5 grams If you need an extra boost before bed, cottage cheese with fruit is a great option. Cottage cheese provides 80% a slow-digesting casein protein, helping to repair muscles overnight and promotes feelings of satiety, while the fruit adds a touch of natural sweetness.
