This ground beef recipe has become a favourite in my house. The Korean flavours are so good without being spicy at all, unless you also make the sauce! you can absolutely batch cook this or at least make an extra portion or two for the next day. The rest of the bowl can be changed with the season and whatever you feel like or need. A fried egg on top is a favourite extra for me.
A delicious protein rich and fibre rich curry, The red lentils thicken up the sauce as well as providing you with plenty of iron along with the spinach. You can serve this with a small helping of brown rice - but you have plenty of fibre-rich carbs with the chickpeas and lentils and so for a lower carb option the rice is not necessary.
Another fish recipe here as it is so quick and easy for a summer evening meal.
Coming in at 29g protein per 100g, your portion size will depend on who you are cooking for and what your requirements are for protein that day..
This can be served with a summer colourful salad, as part of a nourish bowl or with steamed veggies. When in season, it’s perfect with asparagus.
Make an extra portion or 2 and serve in a poke bowl the next day!
A vegetarian fry-up that’s Mediterranean in style! Two eggs is not enough protein for a midlife women for breakfast so we have added halloumi cheese.
