Miso and sesame chicken traybake with edamame

Tray bakes are a great midweek meal. You can ensure a high protein and high fibre dish and even better minimal washing up. Here we have chicken thighs roasted in a sticky miso, ginger and sesame glaze. Fifteen minutes prep and then the oven does the hard work. - this is our kind of cooking! You can serve this on its own or with some soba noodles or brown rice.

In our midlife ensuring we have enough protein in our diet is essential. Ideally we want to hit around 20-30g of protein with each meal. We find many people find this a struggle for lunch. This lunch contains a whopping 36g of protein and with no meat added. Serve with one of our salad dressings. See our blog post for our 6 favourite dressings. To make your life easier you can either batch cook quinoa and black lentils at the weekend for easy lunches or use ready cooked pouches.

Broccoli, quinoa and almond salad

This is a protein packed and liver-loving salad. The liver support is from the kale and broccoli which are members of the cruciferous family of vegetables. The protein comes from the quinoa, edamame beans, almonds and almond butter in the dressing. A fantastic post-workout salad to keep you satisfied.
