What you’ll get

Inside the download:

  • 14 sheet-pan recipes (chicken thighs, salmon, scallops, steak, turkey meatballs, lamb kofta, pork belly, cod, tandoori chickenhalibut with fennel + romanesco)
  • Vegetables built in so it’s one pan, one meal, done
  • Approx protein / carbs / fat per serving (practical, not obsessive)
  • physician-simple way to hit your daily protein target without turning dinner into a math problem
  • A closing “program” section to stabilize cravings, energy, and late-night snacking

Why this works

When dinner is protein-forward, your nervous system tends to unclench. You wake up hungrier for your life and less hungry for the pantry.

My baseline protein target for most people:

I recommend a target of 1.2 to 1.6 g/kg of body weight per day for adults, that lands around 20 percent of your calories each day from protein, but your needs may differ.

Who this plan is for

  • You’re done with decision fatigue at 5:30 pm
  • You want metabolic calm (fewer cravings, steadier energy)
  • You’re lifting, postpartum (I am still postpartum, and my youngest is 21!), perimenopausal, menopausal, or simply tired of being under-muscled
  • You want meals that feel like self-respect, not a second job
