On strength training days, I chug a gloopy concoction of protein powder, higher-protein Fairlife milk, and coffee that has the consistency of drying cement and tastes like I forgot how to love myself. I mix cottage cheese in my eggs and top my berry oatmeal with chia seeds and peanut butter, my head buzzing with all the high-protein swaps I need to make to hit my target protein goal - a whopping daily minimum of 53 grams.

Today, I love cooking up a batch as a healthy side dish or as part of a grain bowl. This farro with mushrooms is bursting with flavor from the savory mushrooms, garlic, and fresh thyme and oregano. Add a spritz of fresh lemon juice and some grated Parmesan cheese and it's a side dish everyone raves about! Want more with mushrooms? Try Mushroom Soup, Sauteed Mushrooms and Onions, Portobello Burger and more.
