Brazilian BBQ

Seafood, chicken, turkey, dairy products, eggs. I'm also trying to make myself like lentils (not that I really dislike them... I'm just a bit ehhhh on them), so I can get some protein that way too.

VeganRaptor

Peanut butter!! And tempeh
Beans are great too, but I find that I need to have something alongside them like toast or rice

Thank you everyone!

Shadowmf023 how do you add it to chicken? Also how much do you add to your smoothie? I recently brought some from winco in the bulk section and it doesn't say how much to use for weight loss. I'm sorry if this sounds silly. I'm still really new to powder protein.

if i had to pick one probably chicken because
its a blank canvas that can be cooked in basically any way and any flavors can be applied to it.

I don't add it to chicken I eat the chicken on the side. Just add 1-2 scoops to a smoothie and then all the other stuff plus enough water for the right consistency.

Depends on how much protein I want from it. 2 scoops of mine is usually 28g protein.

Also, protein powder isn't for weight loss, it's just a protein supplement, sort of like a multivitamin. For weight loss you need to eat fewer calories than you burn.

All of the meats. And protein bars. And greek yogurt.

Thank you everyone for the great ideas!

Fish, poultry, and meat.

Totino's pizzas. MFP praises me for my protein intake every time I log one.

ETA: Okay, a more helpful answer is salmon. I love salmon -- roasted, seared, smoked, whatever.

GottaBurnEmAll

Cottage cheese and eggs.

i'm on a chicken liver kick. not good for cholesterol levels, but they're like my version of pizza. crushed garlic clove, little olive oil and lots of fresh parsley, mmm.

otherwise: mostly chicken and whey isolate/yogurt. i like beef a lot but it's very expensive here and i find it harder to cook in a way that doens't disappoint me in the result.

Stew is your friend for lentils.

Poultry, dairy, eggs, beef, pork, and in a pinch Orgain plant protein powder.

Chicken, eggs, Greek yogurt, beans, and cottage cheese.

Eggs and peanut butter (not together). But I do love a cheeky diet whey protein shake too in a desert flavour to feel a bit naughty
