Achieving weight loss goals often requires maintaining a calorie deficit, which means consuming fewer calories than you burn. However, it’s equally important to ensure that your diet is rich in nutrients, particularly protein, which can help maintain muscle mass and keep you feeling full longer. High-protein breakfasts are a great way to start your day on the right foot, providing the energy and satiety needed to avoid unnecessary snacking. Unfortunately, many popular breakfast options out there offer virtually no nutritious value—but that doesn’t mean there aren’t great options.

Fitness coach Paige Johnston (a.k.a. @paigejohntson.fiton TikTok) recently shared one of her go-to high-protein breakfast recipes, perfect for those in a calorie deficit: PB&J Progurt. This delicious and nutritious meal is not only easy to prepare but also packs a powerful protein punch with only 400 calories. Find all the details below.
