Easy High Protein Chicken & Pasta Cucumber Ranch Salad
My philosophy is there are no rules with salad!! If you enjoy it together, put it in there! Salads don’t need to be iceberg lettuce, cabbage and unripe tomatoes if you don’t want them to be. You are the master of your salad so go forth Padawan and make salads the way YOU want to make them.
This salad is PACKED with some of my favorite items and full of flavor but not just that it has over 50g of protein and a huge punch of potassium!
One Pan Roasted Chicken & Vegetables
Sheet pan recipes are great for when you’re short on time and don’t want to deal with a large mess to clean up. Throw everything in a pan, toss and bake. You can make a large batch to feed a family, or get your meal prep done for the week.

Stop steaming your veggies!
I mean, you can steam them if that’s really how you prefer. But there’s a whole world of flavor out there! Your veggies don’t have to be bland and a necessary evil to your meals. Make them the star!
Spicy Pork Peanut Noodles
This is one for my friends that need CALORIES! You can certainly still eat it if you’re in a cut and eating less calories, I would just pair it with some veggies on the side to add more volume, do a leaner meat such as ground chicken or turkey or add more cabbage/less noodles. I want to say you could try doing something like banza pasta for more protein, but that might be weird lol. If you try it let me know how it goes!
Spicy Daddies
These can be whipped up so quickly! Oven on. Mix ingredients. Roll out. By then the oven should be preheated and ready to rock. While mine cooked I grabbed some green beans, threw them in a HOT pan with avocado oil, allowed them to blister a bit, then added red chili pepper flakes, sliced garlic and salt and cooked for another minute or two.
