1-Week High Protein Meal Plan (with Recipes!)

/

If you’ve ever struggled to implement the high protein diet or have a tough time hitting your protein goals, you’re not alone. Between busy schedules, grab-and-go snacks, and the endless cycle of carbs everywhere, protein often gets overlooked. But here’s the truth: getting enough protein changes everything.

Protein keeps you fuller longer, supports muscle mass (and muscle tone), helps balance blood sugar, and gives you the energy to get through your day without crashing. The problem? It can feel overwhelming to figure out how to fit it all in.

That’s why we created this simple 1-week high protein meal plan. It’s built from real recipes straight out of our High Protein Recipe + Meal Plan Bundle — so you’ll see exactly how easy (and delicious) eating more protein can be.

This plan includes:

  • 3 easy breakfasts you can rotate all week

  • 3 mains (lunches/dinners) that are quick to prep and flavorful

  • Protein-packed snacks to keep you satisfied between meals

Use this sample week to inspire your own meals — and if you want the full plan with nutrition info, and 150 more high-protein recipes, grab the complete bundle HERE.

Why High Protein Works

Eating more protein helps with satiety, weight management, muscle recovery, and blood sugar balance. By planning ahead, you’ll stay full, energized, and less likely to reach for processed snacks.

And remember — this doesn’t have to be complicated:

  • Get creative: Mix and match your proteins with different veggies and grains.

  • Swap ingredients: Don’t have salmon? Try chicken or tofu. No quinoa? Use brown rice.

  • Spice things up: Herbs and spices add flavor without extra calories.

  • Keep it simple: A protein + veggie + healthy fat combo will always be a win.

With just a little prep, you can hit your protein goals and keep your meals exciting all week long.
