Meet Sarah

Portrait of Sarah Mitchell

Hi, I’m Sarah Mitchell

Founder of Prep and Protein

I’m 43 years old, based in Austin, Texas. A wife, a proud mom of two teens, and a passionate home cook. My journey into healthful cooking began when I started noticing changes in my body — fatigue, weight gain, and the frustration of diets that never stuck.

I’m not a nutritionist or influencer. Just a real woman who discovered the power of protein, especially for women over 40. I tried keto, experimented with meal prep, and learned — one step at a time.

Eventually, I began sharing my recipes on Instagram. Not to become famous, but to say: “This worked for me. Maybe it’ll help you too.” And it resonated. That’s how Prep and Protein was born — a space for real, comforting, protein-rich meals that actually fit into busy lives.

No calorie counting. No pressure. Just real food that feels good and tastes even better.

“It’s never too late to eat better and feel better.”

Welcome to my little corner of the internet. Cook, try, and make it your own — one meal at a time.
