Here’s a simple way to make your meals more protein-focused:
Decide on your protein before you decide on everything else.
Instead of building a meal around:
Rice
Bread
Pasta
and then wondering where the protein went…
Start with:
Chicken
Eggs
Greek yoghurt
Paneer
Tofu / soy
Fish
Then build the rest of your meal around it.
This can be particularly useful if your appetite is reduced, because you may want to make the food you do eat as nutritionally useful as possible.
It doesn’t need to be complicated.
You don’t need a perfect meal plan.
Just ask:
“Where’s my protein?”
before you start eating.
