Because I don't eat red meats or hardly any chicken, I sometimes lack on getting the correct amounts of protein that I need to maintain a balanced diet. So once or twice weekly, I'll put together a 'protein punch' meal. This past week I put together a meal that incorporated ingredients known for their high levels of protein and/or vitamins!
- Salmon - Known for it's outstanding protein and omega-3 benefits and yummy goodness!
- Mushrooms - A good substitute for meat/protein.
- Quinoa - The only grain served as a complete source of protein.
- Kale - Rich in vitamins!
- Rinse and drain quinoa (I used red quinoa) and then boil.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper to taste, and sear in pan with the tiniest amount of oil.
- Cook down kale and mushrooms with some oil, salt and pepper to taste.
