High Protein Nudelsalat mit Skyrella

High protein pasta salad with Skyrella

Variation is one of the most important aspects of nutrition for a number of reasons. If you only eat eggs for breakfast, chicken salad for lunch and broccoli burger patties for dinner, you will hardly be able to sustainably implement your diet change to a higher-protein and lower-carbohydrate diet peppered with a wide range of healthy fats.

So I'm always on the lookout for workout-friendly meal options that are easy to make and taste great. And this high protein pasta salad with Skyrella is one of my current favorites.
