Soha Ali Khan Share Easy Protein-Rich Blueberry Oats Recipe

Soha Ali Khan Share Easy Protein-Rich Blueberry Oats Recipe: 5 Foods She Also Loves To Snack On
Got Question about the News?
Soha Ali Khan, along with her husband Kunal Khemu, is known for setting couple goals through their fitness content. The couple have consistently shared videos showing their workouts in the gym, how they parent their kids together, the healthy food they eat without compromising on taste, places they visit as a family and all the fun they get together in life.
Recently, Soha Ali Khan took to Instagram to share her version of blueberry oats that is high in protein and will keep you satiated for a long time. Writing in her caption, she addressed several issues, including the fact that many Indian women do not get sufficient protein in their diet. It read, "
Are you vegetarian and looking for protein packed, nutritious dishes? Protein is not just for those who go to the gym – it’s essential for all women. And yet, many of us Indian women don’t get enough of it. Protein helps maintain muscle, strength, bone health, immunity and healthy ageing — and our protein needs become even more important as we get older (sic)."
In fact, in India, protein deficiency is a widespread nutritional challenge, with surveys showing that roughly 70% to 80% of diets fall short of adequate protein intake. Here’s a quick recipe shared by actor Soha Ali Khan for high-protein blueberry oats that can be made in a jiffy.
A post shared by Soha (@sakpataudi)
Ingredients:
* 20–25 g rolled oats
* 25–30 g pea protein powder (1 scoop)
* 1 tbsp hemp seeds
* 1 tsp chia seeds
* 1 tsp freshly ground flaxseed
* 1 walnut or 2 macadamia nuts, chopped
* Small handful of blueberries or strawberries
* Cinnamon, to taste
* Water or unsweetened nut or plant milk, as needed
Method:
1. Add oats and water/plant milk to a pan and cook on low heat for 3–5 minutes, until soft.
2. Turn off the heat and let it cool slightly. This helps prevent the protein powder from clumping.
3. Slowly stir in the pea protein powder until smooth and creamy.
4. Mix in the hemp, chia and flax seeds.
5. Top with berries and chopped walnut/macadamia.
6. Finish with cinnamon.
Almonds
One food that Soha always makes room for in her routine is almonds. Whether she’s heading to a shoot or travelling, she makes sure to carry a handful of California Almonds with her her. Rich in protein, healthy fats, fibre, and essential nutrients like magnesium and riboflavin (vitamin B2), almonds are a source of sustained energy. The combination of protein, fibre, and healthy fats slows gastric emptying and promotes satiety, while phosphorus supports energy storage and utilisation, making almonds an easy, convenient choice to help beat afternoon fatigue and curb cravings for less nutritious options.
Greek Yogurt
Another staple in her diet is Greek yogurt, which is packed with protein and helps support steady energy levels. Paired with fresh fruit or a handful of nuts, it becomes a balanced option that keeps hunger in check and provides lasting nourishment through the day.
Seasonal Fruits
Soha also includes seasonal fruits like apples, bananas, and berries in her daily routine. These fruits provide natural sugars for a quick energy boost, while their fibre helps prevent sudden spikes and crashes in blood sugar, making them a refreshing way to recharge during the afternoon.
Green Tea
Instead of reaching for another cup of coffee, Soha often opts for green tea. With a moderate amount of caffeine and antioxidants, green tea helps improve alertness and focus without leaving you feeling overstimulated, making it an ideal pick-me-up during busy afternoons.
Roasted Chana
When she needs something quick and filling, roasted chana is another nutritious choice. Rich in protein and fibre, it helps curb hunger, provides sustained energy, and serves as a wholesome alternative to processed snacks.
Soha Ali Khan recommends protein-rich blueberry oats and also enjoys snacks such as roasted channa, almonds, and fruits.
Indian women can easily increase their daily protein intake by incorporating a protein-rich blueberry oats recipe that includes pea protein powder, hemp seeds, chia seeds, and flaxseed. Other options include moong dal idli, palak dal, besan sheera, and curd rice. Edamame, green peas, spinach, broccoli, and cauliflower are also good vegetable sources of protein. Additionally, soya chunks are a rich source of protein.
