Food That Feeds Strength

Some mornings call for something light, clean, and nourishing — not just for the body, but for the sense of calm that comes with taking care of yourself.

As women in midlife and beyond, we know that strength isn’t just about lifting weights or tracking reps. It’s also built in the quiet moments — in the meals we choose, the rest we allow, and the grace we give ourselves as our bodies change.

Protein becomes more important with every decade. It helps preserve lean muscle, stabilize blood sugar, and support the energy we need for daily life. But it doesn’t have to mean complicated recipes or strict routines. It can be as simple as a frittata made with leeks, egg whites, and a drizzle of olive oil — a reminder that nourishment can also feel beautiful.

This week’s recipe, the Leek & Egg White Frittata, is a perfect example of how clean ingredients can create something comforting and energizing. It’s high in protein, easy to digest, and ready in minutes — an everyday kind of self-care.

Whether you enjoy it warm from the oven or chilled for lunch, think of it as a small act of strength that begins in your kitchen and ripples into the rest of your day.
