High Protein Recipes
This is my take on Palak Paneer, minus the paneer and plus tofu. Traditionally, Palak Paneer consists of cooking paneer, an Indian cheese, in a rich and creamy spinach gravy. By swapping out the paneer for tofu, you still get to experience a similar taste, texture and amount of protein for a hearty mid-week dinner.…
The texture of an açai bowl is everything. I’d say it’s just as important as taste. Luckily, this açai bowl has got both bases covered and it’s only 4 ingredients. Featuring frozen açai, frozen bananas, vanilla protein powder and frozen blueberries. To bump up the protein even more, I’ve added my go-to vanilla cashew protein…
A salad bursting with vibrant colors and bold Mediterranean flavors. It features a creamy, high-protein tofu dip as the base, topped with a mix of roasted sweet potato, chickpeas, fresh tomatoes, cucumber, and a handful of herbs. After enjoying it for lunch every day this week, I can confidently say it’s nothing short of a…
Can’t choose between a smoothie and chia pudding for breakfast? Have both in this green chia breakfast parfait. One half high-protein and creamy vanilla chia pudding. The other half green and sweet banana smoothie. Topped with coconut yoghurt and berries for extra freshness. One of my go-to summer breakfasts for when I’m craving something cool,…
I love a good noodle dish. And by “good,” I mean one that’s drenched in a thick, oozy, and flavorful sauce. The kind where, after each slurp, there’s an extra layer of sauce still clinging to your lips, just waiting to be licked off. Mmmmm, delicious. These peanut gochujang noodles do exactly that! But the…
Sandwich shops have Melbourne in a chokehold right now. It feels like the city has waved goodbye to the classic burger and welcomed the humble sanga with open arms. But here’s the catch: when it comes to vegan options, the choices can be pretty hit-or-miss. Most places offer a token vegetarian option, a few sprinkle…
Did you know you can cook tofu in just 2 to 3 minutes using a sandwich press or electric grill? It’s hands-down my greatest tofu hack! The sandwich press chars up the tofu perfectly while keeping it tender inside, and when coated in a drool-worthy peanut sauce, you’ve got the ultimate quick and flavourful appetiser.…
I crave this. No seriously, I do. There is something about the crunch of garlicky ciabatta that makes me fall to my knees. Please garlic bread gods, bake me up some more. Add on the creamy and smooth whipped tofu and the sweet, herby flavour of basil tomatoes and, do you hear that? I think…
Can you believe that there is almost 30g of protein in this wee little jar? The secret is a combination of silken tofu, vanilla protein powder and cashew butter. This is a great breakfast option if you love meal prepping and want to switch up your regular overnight oats. Or, if you just love the…
This is the kind of cake you can eat for… breakfast! My strawberry shortcake baked oats are the perfect way to start your day with something delicious yet nourishing. The oats bake to a soft, comforting texture, while the fresh strawberries add a burst of sweetness. And to take it to the next level, I…
