What I love most is how versatile they are. I usually serve them over steamed cauliflower rice for a lighter, veggie-packed base.

They're hearty, nourishing, and perfect for busy mornings when you want something that feels special but doesn't take forever to pull together.

Mediterranean Beef and Hummus Bowls
This beef bowl recipe is one of my favorites, because it is protein packed with a mix of animal and plant protein. The ground beef comes together quickly and is the only component of the recipe that require a stove! Once we cook the beef in a flavorful spice mixture, we make a creamy hummus with a couple secret ingredient to make it super fluffy. To complete the bowl, we chop up some cucumbers, tomatoes and red onion, add some greens, feta cheese and olives and the result is the most satisfying Mediterranean-inspired bowl with lots flavor and texture. The ground beef alone can also be a great salad topper or a filling for a wrap. This dish takes just 30 minutes to prep, making it a perfect meal prep recipe, packed with fiber and protein.
Chopped Chicken and Cabbage Salad with Carrot-Ginger-Peanut Dressing
This colorful chopped salad is one of my favorite ones to prep for weekday lunches. It is protein and veggie packed, and reminds me of the flavors you get from a green salad at your favorite Asian restaurant. We use rotisserie chicken to save time cooking a whole chicken. I like to shred my cabbage and carrots at home using my food processor or mandolin, but you can easily use pre-shredded veggies to save even more time! This dressing is a staple and on constant rotation in my house. The base is similar to a restaurant-style carrot-ginger dressing, but even creamier and tastier with the addition of peanut butter. There is absolutely no cooking required in this one, so it is great to make in the summer months. Once we chop the chicken, shred and chop the veggies and blend up the dressing, we can either toss it together immediately to serve or store the salad and dressing separately for later. This dish takes just 15 minutes to prep, making it a perfect meal prep recipe, packed with fiber and protein.
High-Protein Strawberry Cheesecake Jars
These jars are one of my favorite sweet protein-packed breakfasts or desserts to prep in convenient single-serve jars! They taste like cheesecake, but they are a lot healthier than the cream-cheese and buttery traditional dessert. We use some crushed graham crackers or granola at the base of the jars for a "crust,' strained cottage cheese with maple syrup and protein powder for the the cheesecake layer and fresh strawberries for the flavor. There is not baking or oven requires for these, and the only work is really straining the cottage cheese to make the cheesecake layer nice and thick. We use only a handful of ingredients and they come together in just 15 minutes! Perfect for a sweet breakfast or a clean sweet treat for dessert, plus they are great on the go. I love to include these in my weekly meal prep rotation, because they are easy and keep well in the refrigerator. Each jar has over 30 grams of protein, and they are packed with fiber from the strawberries. The recipe is simple, made with minimal ingredients and comes together in just 15 minutes!
