Grilled Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Grilled chicken lettuce wraps deliver 28g of protein per two-wrap serving at 240 calories by replacing tortillas and bread with crisp butter lettuce cups. A 30-minute soy-garlic-lime marinade seasons the chicken through its surface layer before grilling, and a 5-minute post-grill rest keeps every slice juicy inside the wrap. Ready in 25 minutes of active time, these work equally well as a weeknight dinner or a meal-prep lunch.

Tuna Pasta Salad
Tuna pasta salad combines shell pasta, oil-packed tuna, sweet peas, and crisp celery in a creamy dill dressing built on a mayo-Greek yogurt base. Cooking the peas directly in the pasta water for the final 2 minutes seasons them and shortens total prep by 8 minutes. Ready in 25 minutes and better after 30 minutes of chilling, it keeps well for 4 days making it the most practical high-protein lunch in the make-ahead rotation.
