⭐️ HIGH PROTEIN, HIGH FIBRE LUNCH IDEA⭐️

Wanted a quick meal after my run 🏃‍♀️today so had 3 scrambled eggs🥚 on 2 x slices of rye bread 🍞, a bit of spread & 1 tsp sprinkle of chia seeds.

This meal provides around 29g of protein & 7g of your recommeded 30g of fibre a day 👍.

Protein & fibre can help you feel fuller for longer & keep blood glucose levels stable.

New year diet & lifestyle changes don't have to be extreme. Just a few positive changes can make a big difference!

Keep a look out 👀 for more of my quick meal ideas.
