Creative Ways to Add More Protein to Your Day

Getting enough protein in your diet is essential for muscle recovery, sustained energy, and overall health. But meeting your daily protein needs doesn’t have to mean endless shakes or plain chicken breasts. With the right ingredients, you can incorporate protein seamlessly into your favourite meals and snacks.

At PBCo., we make it easy to enjoy high-protein foods without compromising on taste. From protein baking mixes to whey protein powder, here are some creative ways to add more protein to your day while keeping meals exciting and satisfying.

1. High-Protein Breakfast Options

Protein Pancakes

A hearty, protein-packed breakfast sets you up for the day. Our Protein Pancake Mix makes it quick and easy to whip up fluffy, delicious pancakes that fuel your morning.

Make it even better:

Top with Greek yoghurt, fresh berries, and a drizzle of almond butter.
Stir in a scoop of vanilla whey protein for an extra protein boost.
Mix with mashed banana and cinnamon for a naturally sweet flavour.

Protein-Packed Oatmeal

Give your oats a protein kick by stirring in a scoop of whey protein powder before serving.

Other ways to boost your oats:

Sprinkle in chia seeds or flaxseeds for added fibre.
