Cottage Cheese Avocado Toast

🔥 Ovulation Phase (Muscle Recovery & Hormone Support)

✔ High Protein & Healthy Fats – Supports metabolism & egg quality
✔ B-Vitamins & Zinc – Found in whole grains & dairy, great for hormone balance
✔ Anti-Inflammatory Benefits – Avocado & whole grains help reduce oxidative stress

Add pumpkin seeds on top for extra antioxidants!

Sweet Soy Honey Chicken

During ovulation estrogen peaks, energy is at the highest & metabolism is stable.

Follow as I build my plate:

Brussels➡️cruciferous veggies help detox excess estrogen
Chicken ➡️ lean protein for muscle recovery & metabolism
Bell peppers ➡️ antioxidant rich veggie to support egg health
Walnuts ➡️ omega 3 to reduce inflammationSweet

For the sauce: In a small bowl, I combined 4 TBSP soy glaze, 2 TBSP honey, 2 TBSP water

In a small pot cook ½ cup of quinoa, I used ½ cup of low sodium chicken stock instead of water

While the quinoa cooks, place seasoned & halved brussels sprouts in the air fryer (cut side down) for about 12-14 minutes (depends how crispy you like them)

Heat a large drizzle of avocado oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add 10 oz chicken in a single layer and season with adobo seasoning.

Once chicken is browned, add minced ginger & red peppers to pan. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Pour in sweet soy honey sauce; cook until sauce has thickened and chicken is coated and cooked through, 2-3 minutes.

Fluff quinoa with a fork and season with adobo. Divide quinoa, brussels, and chicken between plates. Garnish with walnuts and sesame seeds. Serve!
