lunch/dinner
tomato, basil, & garlic pasta
This garlic tomato pasta was DELISH and super easy. Only required two pans and took less than 20 minutes! We added some grilled chicken on top to make this a well balanced meal. Serves 2, macros listed per serving.
easy glazed rainbow carrots
We love a colorful side dish! This recipe was actually inspired by some glazed carrots I had in Vegas last week. Iāve never been a huge carrot person, but this glaze made them SO good. Obviously had to ābrat-ifyā the recipe to lighten it up making these a perfect, macro friendly side to your favorite protein and carb sources! Makes 8 servings.
twice baked potatoes
More protein than your average twice baked potato, and ZERO grams of fat! The perfect side dish for when you have some carbs to play with, or loading it up with more veggies and protein could make this a great lunch as well! Serves 4 (each serving is ½ potato).

I get asked about high-protein snack options a lotāso I pulled together my go-to list of easy, macro-friendly snacks with 15g of protein or more.
Theyāre quick, low in fat, and perfect for hitting your goals without overthinking it! Iāve also linked where I grab some of the store bought items!
hot honey chicken salad (high-protein, meal prep friendly)
If you know me, you know Iām always looking for ways to take a classic and make it macro-friendly. Chicken salad is usually heavy on the mayo, but my version keeps all the creaminess you love while packing in a huge protein punch!!
This has quickly become one of my favorite meal prep recipes ā I portion it out for the week and throw it on toast, a wrap, or over greens for an easy lunch that hits my macros every time.
