I know it can be tricky to get a meal in at all with a newborn, let alone a healthy one! But honestly the easiest way I’ve found to do this is to stick with the same things, so I typically eat the same meals for breakfast and lunch most days, with the same handful of snack ideas, and then I mix things up for dinner. I strive to get about 120 grams of clean protein each day, so these are my go to meal ideas and snacks to achieve this…

Breakfast:

Protein smoothie- frozen banana, cherries, peaches, raw milk, protein powder (ritual or food for life), Greek yogurt

Scrambled eggs with cottage cheese (add the cottage cheese while the eggs are cooking so that it melts into them and makes them creamy! fresh fruit and sourdough toast with grass fed butter on the side.

Lunch:

Salmon salad – lettuce, fresh strawberries, goat cheese, slivered almonds, avocado, and salmon filet (I’ll cook the night before for dinner and make extra for salads). Dressing is olive oil, red wine vinegar, diced red onion or shallot, salt and pepper, Dijon mustard, and maple syrup

If I do the protein smoothie for breakfast then I’ll do the scrambled cottage cheese eggs for lunch and I’ll add in diced sweet potatoes as well!

Turkey, avocado, Mayo (homemade or chosen brand to avoid seed oils), Dijon mustard, and sour kraut on sourdough.

Layer on a Siete brand orange homemade tortilla, some retried beans (find some that don’t have seed oils- I get mine from azure standard), cottage cheese, and raw cheese.
Broil until cheese is melted then add avocado and salsa.

*I always add fresh fruit on the side of these lunches as well!

Snacks:
