Alright, muscle-building foodies — this one’s a game changer.
If you’re sick of bland chicken breast and broccoli on repeat, let me introduce your taste buds to their new best friend: the Teriyaki Steak Quinoa Bowl. It’s got flavor. It’s got texture. It’s got serious gains written all over it. Whether you’re in Week 1 or wrapping up your 28-day plan with a bang, this dish is the kind of fuel that makes your taste buds and your biceps happy.
💪 Why You’ll Love It:
-
High protein? Check.

Tastes like something you’d actually want to eat on a Friday night? Big ol’ check.
This bowl is loaded with juicy top sirloin, fluffy quinoa, edamame for that plant-powered protein backup, and a teriyaki glaze that gives it a little “mmm” with every bite. Plus, there’s shredded carrot for crunch and cilantro for that fancy finishing touch (yes, you’re a chef now).
🥣 The Quick How-To (Because You’re Busy Being Awesome):
-
Cook your quinoa according to the package. Toss the frozen edamame on top in the last 5 minutes and let that magic steam do its thing.

In a skillet, heat olive oil and toss in the shallots, garlic, and thin-sliced steak. Give it 2-3 minutes or until the steak’s got that perfect sear.

Kill the heat and stir in the teriyaki sauce like a boss.
-
Layer it all in a bowl: quinoa + edamame, teriyaki steak, shredded carrots, and a sprinkle of cilantro.
