Our Antipasto Salad With Protein Add-On (30 g protein + 12 g fiber)

For years, Tuesday Foods has been proudly plant-forward. We believe deeply in the power of colorful vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, herbs, and all the beautiful foods that come from the earth. That isn’t changing.

But as we learn more about nutrition, our own needs, listen to what our clients are asking for, and as many of us move through our 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond, we’re also paying closer attention to protein.

Protein is essential throughout our lives, but it becomes especially important as we age. Beginning in midlife, maintaining muscle mass becomes harder, and getting enough high-quality protein, ideally spread throughout the day, an help support muscle maintenance, strength, recovery, bone health, steady energy, and satiety. Pair that with regular strength and resistance training, and it becomes one of the most powerful ways we can support a strong, active body for the years ahead.

And you’ve been asking us for more of it.

So this October, we’re excited to introduce something new to the Tuesday Foods table: The Protein Trio.

Each weekly add-on includes six servings of organic, highest-quality chicken, turkey + beef, simply prepared and ready to add to your Tuesday Foods meals - approximately 180 grams of protein total.

Add chicken to your Buddha bowl. Turkey to your salad. Beef to Taco Time. Divide it up for lunches, share it with your family, or keep it in the fridge for those days when your body is asking for a little more.

Our philosophy isn’t changing from plant-forward to protein-forward. We think there’s a beautiful place where the two meet.

Plants first. Plenty of color. Lots of fiber. Good fats. And enough protein to help us get and stay strong.

For us, this is what eating well looks like as we grow: not following rigid rules, but continuing to learn, evolve, and give our bodies more of what they need.

We’re so excited to bring you something you’ve been asking for, and to add a little more protein to your plant-forward week!
