Tips for Becoming a “Pro” at Dinner Time

Candice Ludwig • 27 September 2024

For the WOW (Workout of the Week) this week, let’s continue our focus on nutrition by ensuring our dinner meal has at least 40g of protein. 


Last week you tried a little weighing and measuring of food and may have already started to notice which foods are high in protein. Make sure to include those pro heavy hitters in your dinner time meals this week. 


High protein meals will help you feel full which can stop or slow you down from overdoing it with portion sizes from unhealthy foods later in the evening (when the craving gremlin seems to hit us the hardest). 

Here are a few options to get you thinking…

  1. Grilled Chicken with Quinoa & Roasted Veggies
  2. Salmon with Lentils & Steamed Asparagus
  3. Turkey Meatballs with Spaghetti Squash
  4. Stir-Fried Tofu with Broccoli
  5. Ground Beef & Bean Chili

Choose whatever you like, just make sure the meal includes a total of 40g of protein.


Let me know what you notice in terms of late night snacking after these high protein meals.
