When life’s a blur of baseball practice, late meetings, and trying to squeeze every last drop out of summer, complicated cooking is not the move. But that doesn’t mean you have to settle for protein bars or another drive-thru dinner.
These 18 Costco meals are high in protein (30-plus grams per serving), low in effort, and made with just a few real-food ingredients. They’re fast, filling, and full of flavor — built for busy people who still want to eat well. From fresh breakfasts to satisfying dinners, every recipe is proof that you don’t need a dozen ingredients or hours in the kitchen to feel good about what’s on your plate.
