Grilled halloumi and courgette skewers
Vegetarian halloumi skewers with courgette keep carbohydrates low in Phase 1.
Grilled halloumi and courgette skewers prove that vegetarian grilling is anything but dull. Halloumi stays beautifully firm on the grill and gets lovely golden stripes, whilst the courgette becomes soft and juicy. With oregano and a touch of lemon zest, you taste a fresh Mediterranean summer in every bite. A surprisingly protein-rich dish without meat.
For Phase 1 of your protein diet, these skewers are a welcome vegetarian option. Halloumi delivers almost 29 grams of protein per serving and keeps carbohydrates low, exactly what matters in this phase. The combination of plenty of protein and few carbs gives a lasting feeling of fullness, whilst the courgette provides fibre and volume without burdening your macros.
Lovely with a fresh Greek salad of tomato and cucumber, or a spoonful of creamy tzatziki based on lean yoghurt. This keeps your plate light, colourful and completely in line with your protein diet.
