What to Expect on Your High-Protein Meal Plan

June 25, 2018

Here at Snap, we love crafting meals to fit your lifestyle. That’s why we’re proud to have a variety of high protein meals for you to choose from. Whether your goal is to build muscle, support your workouts, or just eat healthy, our high protein meal plan has you covered.

What is the high protein meal plan?

Protein is an essential part of our nutritional needs: we all need it to build + repair muscle and maintain bone, joint, and skin health. Our high protein meal plan puts a little more emphasis on eating high-quality proteins such as eggs, poultry, grass-fed meats, and seafood, in addition to a variety of vegetables, fruits, and healthy fats.

Our high protein meal plan provides 35-45% of your daily calories from protein, which just means that you’re getting more of your daily energy needs from protein to help promote muscle growth and support recovery—especially important if you live an active lifestyle or have specific fitness goals to meet.

So tell me more… What do I eat?

Every single one of our dietitian-approved meal plans focuses on eating nutrient-dense, real, and wholesome foods. The high protein lifestyle plan stocks your fridge up with quality protein sources like eggs, poultry, seafood, grass-fed meats, and even plant proteins like beans, nuts, and seeds. You can choose from fan favorites like our Banana Pancakes for breakfast and dishes like Chicken Tenders with Turnip Mash, or Chicken Piccata for lunch or dinner! You can mix and match options to meet your cravings and we’ll make sure the protein and nutrient content fit your overall goals.

What should I expect or notice?

Because personal fitness goals and activity levels vary from person to person, the amount of protein we all need differs as well. High protein meals support building muscle strength and can help prevent muscle loss. Protein is the building block of muscle, making it especially important for those partaking in strength or resistance training. Muscle tissue is constantly being broken down during activity and is repaired with the aid of protein. Eating the correct amounts will help you recover faster, meaning you can reach your fitness goals faster too.

Eating foods high in protein helps you stay satisfied and full since protein takes longer to digest than carbohydrates. Because of this, protein helps with satiety and stabilizes blood sugar to give you a steady state of energy. There’s also enough scientific evidence to support that a high protein diet can help you support and maintain a healthy weight.


We love making it easy to find healthy options that support your overall health and fitness goals, no matter what they are. Living your unique healthy lifestyle has never been easier! #LifeMadeHealthy
