Tuna is great for a high protein diet as it has 33 grams of protein within its housing, with no pesky carbohydrates to worry about. In addition to this, tuna contains B vitamins and vitamin D, both of which are vital to fighting back against PCOS. Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to.

2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary

2 pieces jarred roasted bell peppers, drained and chopped (about 1/2 cup)
6 tablespoons shaved ricotta salata or Parmesan, optional
