    High Protein

    High protein doesn't have to mean tons of meat. While there's nothing wrong with eating meat sometimes, it's only included up to a few times a week in the heart healthiest diets in the world.

    That's why our recipes focus on delicious, whole plants foods that are naturally high in protein. We also love a little Greek yogurt here and there! These recipes are all low in cholesterol, saturated fat, and sodium, while simultaneously being high in fiber, protein, and vitamins and minerals.

    Use the heart healthy high protein recipes below to find your new favorite dish!
