In just a few weeks, I’ll be stepping on stage for my first bodybuilding competition—yes, sparkly bikini and all! That means every meal I eat is intentional, designed to fuel my workouts, optimize recovery, and keep my body strong. But here’s the thing: you don’t have to be a bodybuilder to reap the benefits of a protein-rich, nutrient-dense meal. Whether you’re looking to build lean muscle, boost energy, or simply eat cleaner, this recipe is packed with everything your body needs to thrive.
A high-protein diet isn't just for athletes—it’s essential for all women, especially as we age. Protein supports lean muscle mass, keeps your metabolism humming, and balances hormones. Pair it with fiber-rich vegetables and healthy fats, and you’ve got a well-rounded meal that supports energy, satiety, and long-term health.
This recipe delivers:
✔ Protein (36g per serving) – Supports muscle repair, hormone balance, and keeps you full longer. ✔ Healthy Fats (17g per serving) – Essential for brain function, hormone production, and cellular health. ✔ Micronutrients from veggies – Provides vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to support immunity, digestion, and glowing skin. ✔ Low-Carb & Nutrient-Dense – Keeps blood sugar stable while giving your body the fuel it needs.
So whether you’re training for a competition, looking to support hormone balance, or just want a satisfying meal that won’t leave you crashing later—this one’s for you!
