Something for the meat lovers:

Mediterranean Turkey Burgers (365 cal, 42g protein)

  • 200g turkey mince
  • 30g feta, crumbled (mix INTO the patty)
  • Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (about 3-4)
  • Fresh basil, chopped
  • Garlic, oregano, salt, pepper
  • Form into 2 patties, grill or pan fry 5 min/side
  • Serve on lettuce wraps instead of buns
  • Top with tzatziki (2 tbsp Greek yogurt + cucumber + lemon + dill)

The feta inside the burger stays melty and makes it SO juicy. People always ask me how my turkey burgers are so moist — it's the feta. Dont skip it.

Y'all are doing savory so let me cover the sweet craving:

Protein Banana Ice Cream (245 cal, 30g protein)

  • 2 frozen bananas (slice before freezing!!)
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tbsp PB2 powdered peanut butter
  • Splash of almond milk
  • Blend in food processor until thick and creamy
  • Top with a few dark chocolate chips if you're feeling wild

Tastes like actual chocolate peanut butter ice cream. My kids eat it and have no idea it's healthy. Serves 2.

I love all these recipes but let me contribute the laziest high-protein meal known to man:

The "I Can't Be Bothered" Plate (410 cal, 44g protein)

  • 1 tin tuna
  • 150g cottage cheese
  • Handful cherry tomatoes
  • Some crackers (Ryvita or similar)
  • Everything bagel seasoning on the cottage cheese

Assembly time: 2 minutes. Cooking involved: zero. Dishes: 1 plate and a fork. You're welcome.

the "I Can't Be Bothered Plate" is peak GLP-1 energy honestly 😂 Some days that's all we can manage and you know what, 44g protein is 44g protein regardless of effort level.

This thread is a goldmine. Saving every single recipe. Keep them coming if you have more!
