Power Meals On-the-Go: Protein-Packed Picks from The Fat Butcher
Busy days call for fuel that works as hard as you do. Whether you're hitting the gym, powering through work, or just trying to eat cleaner, having high-protein meals to-go makes all the difference. At The Fat Butcher, we make it easier (and tastier) to stay on track with premium meats that deliver on both nutrition and flavor. Here are four protein-packed meal ideas using our top-quality products like Classic Choice Ribeye Steak, Salmon Loin, Chicken Thighs, and Hungarian Sausage—perfect for your lunchbox, meal prep, or quick take-out option.
1. Classic Choice Ribeye Steak with Garlic Green Beans & Brown Rice
Bold, juicy, and built for strength.
Nothing beats the rich flavor of a perfectly seared ribeye. Our Classic Choice Ribeye Steak is a top-tier cut that’s both satisfying and loaded with protein. For a quick to-go meal, grill it medium or medium rare, slice it into strips, and pack it with sautéed garlic green beans and brown rice. Not only is it a balanced plate, but it's also a great post-workout meal that feels like a reward.
Protein: ~45g per serving | Best for: Gym days, heavy workdays, or a power lunch.
2. Baked Salmon Loin with Herbed Quinoa & Lemon Broccoli
Light, clean, and omega-rich.
Our Salmon Loin is a lean, premium seafood option that’s rich in protein and healthy fats. Bake it with olive oil, salt, pepper, and fresh herbs like dill or rosemary. Serve with a side of herbed quinoa and steamed broccoli with a squeeze of lemon. It’s the ideal choice if you're aiming for something nutritious, clean, and energizing, without compromising on flavor.
Protein: ~35g per serving | Best for: Clean eating, office lunches, or pre-event meals.
3. Grilled Chicken Thighs with Roasted Sweet Potato & Cucumber Salad
Flavorful, versatile, and meal-prep friendly.
Chicken thighs are a staple for high-protein meal prepping—and for good reason. They’re juicier than chicken breast and full of flavor. Marinate our Chicken Thighs in your favorite spice blend (try paprika, garlic, and lemon), grill until golden, and pair with roasted sweet potato wedges and a light cucumber-tomato salad. It’s a filling, balanced meal you can take anywhere.
Protein: ~30g per serving | Best for: Meal prep, packed lunches, or fitness-focused diets.
4. Hungarian Sausage with Sautéed Peppers & Cauliflower Rice
Smoky, satisfying, and low-carb friendly.
Craving something smoky and savory? Our Hungarian Sausage brings bold flavor without the bulk. Slice and pan-sear it, then toss it with sautéed bell peppers and onions. Serve with cauliflower rice or shredded cabbage for a keto-friendly, low-carb option that still delivers on protein.
Protein: ~20–25g per serving | Best for: Low-carb diets, keto meals, or fast lunch boxes.
Final Bite:
Eating high-protein doesn’t have to mean boring chicken breast every day. With The Fat Butcher’s premium cuts, you can prep delicious, energizing meals that keep you fueled wherever you go. Whether you’re meal prepping for the week or grabbing something quick, these dishes prove that flavor and fitness can go hand in hand.
