Morrisons Higher-Protein Weekly 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 121g of protein, built around Morrisons's Savers for an estimated £50–75/week. Meals lean on lower-fat protein — chicken breast, white fish, egg whites, low-fat dairy — so each meal carries more protein for the calories it costs, leaving room to hit the day's target without relying on volume alone.

- Counter service is not available in every store or at every hour.

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 extra egg whites (3–4) to a breakfast instead of whole eggs — protein without the extra fat
- Swap a carb portion for extra chicken breast or white fish on higher-hunger days
- Use 0% fat Greek yogurt or quark instead of standard yogurt for the same volume, far more 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
