As the benefits of muscle health and strength roll in for supporting a healthy journey, a consistent number calories per day need to come from protein – and Dr. Weil suggests focusing on plant-based sources such as beans, whole soy foods and quinoa, as well as sustainably sourced fish such as wild-caught Alaskan salmon or sardines. Try out the recipe suggestions below for healthy salads that focus on plant and fish-based sources of protein for your next mid-day meal!
- Quinoa Tabbouleh – Quinoa, a native grain of the high Andes, is high in protein, gluten-free and easy to cook. Give this veggie and herb-packed recipe a try!
- Tofu Salad –One of the healthiest changes Dr. Weil says you can make in your diet is to incorporate whole soy foods on a regular basis. Soy is rich in protein, iron and compounds called isoflavones, which seem to protect against hormone-driven cancers such as prostate and breast cancer.
- Salmon Nicoise –Fresh salmon takes the place of the tuna in this classic dish, hearty enough for lunch or dinner.
