Anyone who has been following me for a long time knows that I have made quite a change in lifestyle. I exercise an average of 10 hours a week, walk the dog a lot and drink very little alcohol! Every now and then a glass at a party or during the holidays. I have also changed quite a bit when it comes to nutrition. Due to the many sports and also the desire to have and maintain more muscles, I also need more protein. So I take this into account with the products and meals I make. Like this protein-rich chicken schnitzel salad! A delicious protein-rich salad with chicken that is filling, and therefore also nutritious and has a lot of protein.

The macros of this salad are divided into protein/fat/carbohydrates and are as follows: 25 grams of carbohydrates, 31 grams of protein and 13 grams of fat. In total you end up with about 366 Kcal with this salad. So those are very good macros and you get a lot of vegetables and proteins with them. And tell yourself, it also looks delicious, right?
A protein-rich meal is a meal that contains a lot of protein, an important nutrient for your body. Protein is a building block for your muscles, organs, skin, hair and nails. Protein also provides energy and helps strengthen your immune system. A protein-rich meal has various benefits for your health and your weight. You can compose a protein-rich meal in various ways.
You can choose from both animal and vegetable sources of protein, such as meat, fish, eggs, dairy, legumes, nuts, seeds and soy. It is good to vary between these sources, because they do not all contain the same amino acids, the building blocks of protein. Some amino acids your body cannot make itself and you have to get them through your food. These are the essential amino acids.
