"On strength training days, I chug a gloopy concoction of protein powder, higher-protein Fairlife milk, and coffee that has the consistency of drying cement and tastes like I forgot how to love myself. I mix cottage cheese in my eggs and top my berry oatmeal with chia seeds and peanut butter, my head buzzing with all the high-protein swaps I need to make to hit my target protein goal - a whopping daily minimum of 53 grams."
"Here's how to make it and feel good about your protein and fiber intake - until the next meal, at least. Quick-cooking farro is the real MVP At about 10 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber per half a cup, Trader Joe's farro has more of both nutrients than brown rice. I also personally find it tastier and more filling than quinoa, one of the only grains to be higher in protein and fiber than farro."
Daily eating focuses heavily on meeting a protein target of at least 53 grams, with frequent high-protein swaps like protein powder with higher-protein milk, cottage cheese in eggs, chia seeds, and peanut butter in oatmeal. A single weekly sheet-pan dinner supplies roughly 35 to 40 grams of protein and adds significant fiber for gut and heart health. The dinner pairs a lean protein (salmon, chicken, fish, or tofu) with vegetables, quick-cooking farro, oil, and seasonings. Trader Joe's provides cost savings and convenient ingredients such as fast-cooking farro and seasoning mixes. Quick-cooking farro offers about 10 grams protein and 4 grams fiber per half cup, exceeding brown rice.
