Here’s an idea for a balanced breakfast that will keep you full, energized, and strong 💪🏽
When it comes to feeling good in perimenopause (or honestly at any age)…I’ve learned that balanced meals matter wayyy more than just calories.
This breakfast has protein, healthy fats, carbs, fiber, and electrolytes…everything your body needs to start the day feeling good!😍
Here’s what’s on my plate:
🥑 Sourdough + avocado - super healthy fats + carbs for steady energy and hormone support.
🍳 Two eggs- with 6 grams of protein each - quality protein that supports muscle, metabolism, and staying full longer…..but 12 grams isn’t enough for one meal soooo……
🥣 Cottage cheese + creatine - for that extra protein for muscle support, brain health and strength! 1/2 cup of cottage cheese is 18 grams.. I added about 3/4 cups to make my total protein for this meal about 33 grams!
🧂 Himalayan sea salt for a little electrolyte boost!(especially helpful if you train or sweat)
🌶 Chili flakes - because this girl likes it spicy.
🫐 Blueberries & raspberries - fibre and antioxidants to support gut health and blood sugar balance.
Balanced meals like this help keep energy stable, support hormones, and keep you feeling satisfied!!
Real food. Real strength!!
And yes… I eat to be strong enough to body slam someone if necessary. 😆💪🏽
