Morrisons Body Recomposition Plan — 2,000 kcal
Body recomposition: high protein with a moderate calorie target. This 7-day plan targets 2,000 kcal/day and averages 133g of protein, built around Morrisons's Savers for an estimated £60–100/week. Protein sits high relative to the calorie target — the aim is building muscle and losing fat at the same time, which needs more protein than either goal alone. Whether that target sits above or below your own maintenance depends on your energy needs.

What Morrisons is good for here

Worth knowing before you shop

Swaps & Suggestions
💰 Make it cheaper
- Buy Morrisons's Savers range for rice, pasta, oats and tins — nutritionally identical to standard lines, at the lowest price point in store
- Replace fresh salmon with tinned mackerel or sardines in brine (saves ~£2–3/week)
- Switch to Morrisons's value range across the board rather than mid-tier lines
- Use frozen chicken breast instead of fresh (saves ~£1.50/week, same protein)
- Swap fresh berries for frozen mixed berries (same nutrients, fraction of the cost)
💪 Increase protein
- Add 2–3 extra egg whites to breakfast rather than increasing portion size across the board
- Use a protein shake as a between-meal top-up instead of an extra carb-based snack
- Swap a starchy side for extra chicken, fish or tofu when a meal runs light on protein
🥦 Make it vegetarian
- Replace chicken with Quorn fillets or diced firm tofu
- Swap beef mince for tinned green lentils or plant-based mince
- Use halloumi or feta instead of meat in lunch salads
- Substitute eggs or cottage cheese for fish-based meals
