High Protein Keto Recipes

Each meal on this list contains at least 30 grams of protein per serving, but most are near or above 40 grams.

Personally, I usually eat 50-60 grams of protein each meal, and each one of these recipes can be easily modified or doubled to add more protein to each meal.

I've gathered breakfasts, lunches, and dinners that are also:

  • low carb and THM:S meals
  • gluten free
  • easy to meal prep
  • reheat well
  • made with whole, real foods

These are dishes the whole family will love!

What is a High Protein Diet?

There are many different definitions of a high-protein diet floating around on the internet, and in medical circles, making it difficult to determine if

  1. You're eating a high protein diet, and
  2. How much protein is considered “high protein”

A high protein diet is determined by what percentage of total daily calories is coming from protein.

In the Standard American Diet (SAD) 10%-15% of calories come from protein

But on a high protein diet, the number can be as high as 30%-50% of daily calories from protein.

The exact percentage of calories coming from protein is determined by your gender, age, and goals.

Typically, men can eat an extremely high protein diet and benefit from it, while women seem to top our at a certain amount of protein. Meaning, any extra protein over a certain “set point” doesn't give any additional benefit to the body.

A high-protein plan for fat loss is typically eating 0.6-0.75g of protein per pound of body weight. (Topping out at about 225g of protein per day for women)

Benefits of a High Protein Diet

If you're interested in trying a high protein diet, you'll definitely be interested in all of the benefits:

  1. Repair and Restore: protein is essential for nearly all bodily functions and tissues, all of which are repaired and replaced using dietary protein. By increasing your protein intake, you increase you body's ability to renew.
  2. Balance Hormones: messenger proteins are what allow cells and organs to communicate with each other, allowing your body to naturally balance it's hormones through better cellular communication.
  3. Decreased Appetite & Increased Satiation: consuming protein stimulates Ghrelin (the hunger hormone) which helps you feel full and satisfied.
  4. High Metabolic Rate: You burn thought about 30% of the calories in the protein you eat just processing it to be used by all the systems in your body.
  5. Weight Loss/Fat Loss: When decreasing your calories to lose fat, typically muscle is lost too. By increasing the amount of protein you're eating while decreasing fat and carbohydrates you are protecting your muscles against being lost while losing weight.

These are just as few of the benefits!

Others include: strengthened bones, less muscle loss while aging, faster wound healing, and increased muscle mass.
