I feel like red meat has gotten a bad rap over the years, so let’s talk about it. Red meat, when sourced properly and eaten in moderation, can be an incredible source of protein, iron, B vitamins, and essential fatty acids—all of which support muscle growth, energy production, and hormone balance. So, if you’ve been avoiding red meat out of fear, it’s time to reframe the conversation and focus on quality over quantity.
This Pan-Seared Steak with Cauliflower is the perfect example of how to enjoy nutrient-dense, high-quality protein in a way that fuels your body and supports overall wellness. Whether you’re looking to build muscle, balance hormones, or just enjoy a satisfying, nourishing meal, this one is for you!
Why This Meal Works for You
A high-protein diet isn’t just for athletes—it’s essential for all women, especially as we age. Protein supports muscle tone, keeps metabolism strong, and plays a key role in hormone balance. Pair it with fiber-rich vegetables and healthy fats, and you have a well-rounded meal that supports energy, satiety, and long-term health.

Servings: 2
Ingredients:
0.65 lbs Grass-Fed, Organic Top Sirloin Steak
Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 head Cauliflower (medium, cut into florets)
2 tsp Lemon Juice
Instructions:
Heat a cast-iron pan over high heat. While the pan heats up, season the steak with salt and pepper.
Once hot, coat the pan with oil and place the steak inside. Cook for 5-6 minutes per side (or until desired doneness). Remove and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
While the steak rests, place the cauliflower in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for 3-5 minutes, until tender.
Divide the steak and cauliflower evenly onto two plates. Season the cauliflower with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Enjoy!
