High-Protein Recipes
These high protein recipes are developed to provide you with the all-important protein-rich recipes you need to live a healthy lifestyle and support your exercise regime. Our recipes feature a range of animal proteins, including chicken, salmon, and beef as well as vegetarian options like tofu too.
We understand how difficult it is to consume the right amount of protein and other health-supporting nutrients too so these recipes make cooking protein rich meals simple and easy.
Why Prioritise Protein?
Everyone needs protein in their diet to allow your body to function normally. The essential amino acids that make up protein help you grow your muscle, skin and hair, but they’re also essential to providing energy for many of the processes that take place in your body at a cellular level.
But, if you’re wondering about the benefits of a high protein diet, then there are a few to be aware of.
Improved Satiety
This refers to that feeling of “being full”. Protein takes longer for your body to process than fat and simple carbohydrates. So, it leaves you feeling fuller for longer. If you're looking to cut down on snacking, a healthy portion of protein at meal times can help to combat those urges.
Muscle Growth
The amino acids within protein are essentially the building blocks of muscle. If you’re working out regularly, or live an active lifestyle then a good serving of protein will be great for your progress. Chicken recipes are always a go-to for building muscle.
Hormone Function
Women going through menopause will find that protein is essential to maintaining health. Protein supports healthy hormone function, supports muscle when tissue decline begins and has also been linked to weight management too.
