Ensuring an adequate intake of protein in your daily diet is crucial, regardless of your fitness objectives. Protein serves as a vital nutrient that can enhance your metabolism, sustain your energy levels, support weight loss, facilitate muscle development, and contribute to a well-rounded diet. There is no better way to commence your day than with a breakfast rich in protein. Surti Yadav, a woman who successfully lost 17 kg by consuming 'ghar ka khana' (home-cooked food), advocates for three high-protein recipes.

These recipes are not only rich in satisfying protein but also designed to help you achieve your health and fitness aspirations, requiring minimal time and no advanced cooking skills. The most appealing aspect is that each recipe contains at least 25 grams of protein and is under 300 calories. In her article titled '3 high-protein breakfast recipes I ate on repeat to lose 17 kg', Surti Yadav provides comprehensive details.
