Recipes for Greens + Protein…

As we are approaching the mid-point of National Nutrition Month, I thought it would be a wonderful opportunity to share a few delicious and nutritious recipes that are not only heavy on the greens but also packed with protein. This powerhouse combination of nutrients and fuel that you receive from pairing protein with fresh produce provides you with sustained energy throughout your day. Additionally, it will help you meet your daily quota of both fiber and protein, ensuring you feel satisfied and nourished.

Looking for a quick but “fancy” lunch idea? Try these Spicy Salmon Lettuce Wraps! Not only will you get a great serving of protein, but you will also get the added benefit of Omega-3 fatty acids from the salmon.

If you are looking for inspiration for St. Patricks Day breakfast, I’ve got you covered with my Green Egg Scramble and Shamrock Muffins. Both pack protein and produce into every bite.

For dinner you could choose between Blue Cheese Green Beans & Chicken Thighs or grill some shrimp and serve it with this flavorful Green Goddess Salad.

As for me, I’m looking forward to making a batch of green smoothies and also changing up the tradition of corned beef and cabbage by making Wild Salmon and Roasted Cabbage instead.

I truly hope you enjoy these delicious recipes, and that they bring a wonderful sense of how simple good nutrition can be. Enjoy!
