Hey there! My name is Elena Brooks, I’m 41 years old, and I live in beautiful Denver, Colorado. For most of my life, I struggled with my weight, energy, and confidence. Food was both comfort and conflict. Everything changed when I took a leap into a community fitness class. I barely finished, but it sparked something I hadn’t felt in years: hope. That hope turned into curiosity about nutrition, and high-protein meals daily quickly became my foundation. They kept me full, helped me recover, and made me feel strong. As I grew healthier, I discovered a real love for cooking.
I started turning basic ingredients into flavorful, satisfying meals that didn’t feel like diet food—chickpea stews, grilled chicken bowls, sweet potato mash with spice blends that made me excited to eat. Eventually, I trained at culinary school to bring both passion and precision to what I create. My focus is now on smart, protein-rich recipes that fit busy lives and help people feel energized, nourished, and in control of their health. That’s the heart behind everything I share on ProteinMealsDaily.com.
Outside the kitchen, I’m often hiking the Flatirons or hosting dinner nights with my fitness crew. My food is all about second chances and fresh starts. If you’re ready for meals that support your goals while still bringing joy to your plate, I’m right here beside you. Let’s cook something empowering together.
Over time, this journey has connected me with thousands of others who want real food without the overwhelm—people balancing work, family, and wellness one plate at a time. Protein Meals Daily isn’t just about recipes; it’s about building confidence through food that fuels you forward.
