Does anyone have some really great typically carb-loaded foods that actually have a lot of protein in them? I could live solely off carbs, so I love finding good replacements.

Post your favorites and where to get them!

My favorite example are the Perfect 10 Bagels by Western Bagel. You can also order them online! 150 calories and 19g of protein!

I also like Quest Chips in place of potato chips. They're more like crackers, but they're 120 calories for the whole bag and 21g of protein! I order mine from their website.

    Legumes. Lentils and beans are good sources of carby proteins.
  • I have the same issue finding foods with both.

    I also have an issue with eating enough carbs during the day. Many times I go to bed full and when completing my diary it says more than not that I am not eating enough. I know I should post a new thread, but if anyone has ideas, please fill me in. ;)

    Pretty much this.

    Also dairy.

    Some oatmeals have a decent amount.

    I just bought Special K Protein Plus cereal and it tastes ok. 120 cals per 3/4 cup with 10 grams of protein.

    HAHA I wish I had the problem with eating carbs! I want to eat nothing but sandwiches, toast, bagels, popcorn, etc
