Can anybody share their favourite bloggers / websites for high protein recipes? I am mostly pescatarian so need to get creative to get my daily requirements.

Oh nice, that’s a great idea! I’d love to follow along
My go-to is 0% fat greek yoghurt with a scoop of protein powder, mixed berries, chia seeds, chopped banana and a bit of peanut butter. Can easily get over 50g of protein (more with larger portions)
I think being pescatarian is an advantage. Seafood is great for protein. I particularly enjoy Poke with baby spinach instead of rice. I'll also sometimes sear a tuna steak with whatever seasoning I feel like and have that. Salmon is another of my favorites.itsmenotyou said:

Thanks this sounds yummy - can't get 0% fat greek yoghurt where i live but can do the rest.UnusualLLama said:
I don't love protein powder but think it would be well covered in this combo! i will try this later today.
Yes it def makes it much easier than being vegetarian! I can't get unfarmed salmon where i live so i don't love eating too much salmon...CharmanderInDisguise said:
thanks for responding.
Thanks. I used to love my protein shake but the thought of having a shake lately makes me feel nauseous... I really wish i was into them - would make life so much easier..anhydrous said:
Big Non fat greek user here. Add hemp/ chia/ cinnamon, a little honey.
I eat it mixed with steel cut oats and get the complex carb in too.
Banana and non fat greek is a good one too.

That’s a great list of healthy goodies. I also add in ground flaxseed and pepitas. I switch between Greek yogurt and steel cut oats with protein powder to mix up my evening snack.UnusualLLama said:
If you can find regular yogurt you can turn it into "Greek yogurt" by straining it through cheesecloth (or a coffee filter) over a bowl, and let it sit in the fridge for a few hours.itsmenotyou said:
When the liquid (whey) is gone, you’re left with a more concentrated yogurt that is thicker, creamier, and higher in protein.
That liquid, whey, is where the bulk of the protein is.Vriende said:
Try Pompano fish, with skin removed.

Yeh i could give that a shot.. good snack for the kids too..anhydrous said:
very interesting i did not know this!! i can get greek yoghurt here but not 0% fat greek yoghurt.Vriende said:
Wraps are really easy. Just season your protein (fish, shrimp, tofu) for what you eat. You can prep a lot of that too & just heat it up for a quick meal. I make different sauces/dressing with the plain greek yogurt. Put some of that in there for extra protein & flavor w some lettuce of choice. You mentioned kids & this is great for them too. Quick, easy & healthy. If you can find the no/low carb wraps those are high in fiber too. Get those for yourself & reg for the kids.
I do this but as a smoothie. I do 2 scoops of protein (50g) and also add half an avocado for good fats. Pretty delicious treat to start your day off or as a snack.UnusualLLama said:
