Frequently asked questions
What counts as a "high protein" recipe on this list?
A recipe qualifies when at least 30% of its calories come from protein and it has at least 8g of protein per serving — the same threshold used across this site, not a looser bar just for this list.
Why do some recipes with lots of protein-sounding ingredients not appear here?
Recipes without a real macro breakdown can't be verified against the threshold, so they're left out rather than assumed to qualify. Recipes without published nutrition data never appear on this list.
