For Riley Foster, a fitness instructor and frequent meal planner, maintaining energy depends on protein. “Protein maintains your feeling full and fuels your muscles,” she says. Those who lead an active life would find her high-protein dinner schedule ideal.
Riley’s eating plan calls for a regular day like this:
Breakfast should start strong with pancakes loaded with protein, advises Riley. She makes hers using eggs, oats, and protein powder. topped with Greek yoghurt and berries, this makes for a filling approach to power the day.
A boiled egg and a handful of nuts make mid-morning snack. “It keeps you going until lunch and is portable,” she says.
Lunch is grilled chicken salad. Riley enjoys this. “For a balanced, high-protein dinner, add quinoa, avocado, and olive oil drizzles.” She also changes chicken for tofu or fish to keep dishes interesting.
Riley says, “A protein shake is my go-to, afternoon snack.” For a quick and reviving boost she combines frozen bananas, almond milk, and whey protein.
Dinner calls for “lean steak or turkey with roasted vegetables,” she explains. Combining it with sweet potatoes gives good carbohydrates for recuperation.
Riley’s counsel? “Everything depends on preparation.” Spend some time organising your meals; you will never feel as though you are rushing.
