Book Synopsis

75 nourishing, protein-packed recipes from a certified holistic nutritionist to curb cravings, boost energy, and stabilize blood sugar and mood--helping you live a healthier, happier life.

Recent research shows that outdated protein guidelines fall short for busy, multitasking women. Whether reader's are a parent or a young professional balancing work and family, your body needs about 30 grams of protein at each meal to truly thrive. In this science-backed cookbook, holistic nutritionist Meredith Youngson, founder of Lake & Oak Tea Co., shares 100 high-protein recipes designed to elevate everyday meals and keep you feeling satisfied. Power up with Easy Blender Cottage Cheese Pancakes or Miso Bone Broth Oatmeal with Sesame Fried Eggs at breakfast. For lunch, try Chili Crisp Salmon Bowl with Smashed Cucumber Salad for a substantial boost. Refuel midday with Chocolate Protein Pot de Crème or Creamy Collagen London Fog. For dinner, enjoy Herby Feta Beef Kofta with Pomegranate Crunch Salad or Pickle-Brined Chicken Schnitzel with Braised Cabbage for a balanced meal that will keep you satisfied until morning. Every meal contains 25 to 40 grams of protein.

Throughout the book, Meredith also shares grounding self-care rituals to help you reclaim your health, including tips for mindful eating, better sleep, reduced anxiety, and a sustainable movement practice. Whether you're just beginning to prioritize protein or you're already a protein-packing pro with an established wellness routine, these hunger-crushing recipes will help you boost your metabolism, support your health, and rediscover the joy of cooking feel-good food.
