Higher-protein meal planning within a lower-calorie target. This 7-day plan targets 1,800 kcal/day and averages 150g of protein, built around Morrisons's Savers for an estimated £65–100/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.
Individual days vary around these figures.

The protein and calorie figures on this plan are calculated from weighed portions. Estimating by eye is where most high-protein plans quietly drift, so a set of digital scales is the difference between following this plan and approximating it. Any scale works — this is simply a cheap, accurate one.

| Budget | £65–100/week estimate | Budget plans keep variety while still prioritising own-brand and batch-friendly ingredients. |
| Prep style | Standard (20–30 min/day) | Standard-prep plans balance variety, fresh meals and realistic weekday cooking. |
