Any good protein sources on the go?

ssbmacdaddy

Noticed not getting enough protein. Anyone know any good natural protein sources in the go that pack easy. Don't get any down time at work so work 9 hours without break. Need food can consume within 1 minute. Don't want manufactured shakes and allergic to milk products. Any ideas would be appreciated.

So if you don't want protein powders and you're alergic to milk... you're kinda limiting yourself. Unless you start carrying lean sliced deli meats with you everywhere. There's also this...

I keep protein bars in my purse. Works pretty well in a pinch.

Quest protein bars, boiled eggs, portions of grilled chicken or deli meats, almonds ...

Protein bars
Beef / Turkey Jerky
Protein shakes you make with water (if you have fridge access)
Chicken or beef strips than can be eaten cold (again, if you have fridge access)

Take any meat, cook it at home and cut it into bite sized chunks. There you go.

Also, hard boiled eggs.

This + homemade protein bars if you don't want to buy the mass manufactured ones. Also deli meat sammiches (which were a life savor to me)

This, plus some protein bars (I personally like the Quest ones, but there are countless options out there). I also like lunch meat sandwiches from time to time.

Tuna in a can/bag
Jerky

I usually eat a couple cans of tuna a day, just a couple of bites and good source of protein. They come in little tear open bags, same with salmon, also good protein.

cottage cheese
greek yogurt...
MILK!!!!!!


I personally like nuts....but I would not rely on them as protein sources...
They don't have a complete amino profile.

What everyone else said...

+ Quest bars are my go to item when I need a protein boost.

Also muscletech and some other companies sell protein shooter tubes...never looked into them as far as overall bang for the buck, but I would think they are good in a pinch, some of them have as much as 26G per tube.

Check out Perky Turkey Jerky. I get a box every month from the manufacturer. It is 11g protein per 1 oz and it comes in a 2.2 oz pouch. Love it!

In the UK most supermarkets have packs of chicken/turkey etc which are roasted and are cut into bit size bites about 100g or more, they can be eaten with your fingers and are healthy.

I bought a Teriaki 'Ostrim' (ostrich) jerky the other day at Planet Smoothie and was surprised at how good it was. .

Nuts and jerky if you don't have refrigeration.

Also split pea crisps and roast chickpeas for some vegan sources.

You are not alone! I am allergic to dairy, egg, gluten / gliadin; as such I can't have anything with oats, barley or rye in as well ... it makes finding protein supplements difficult unless you can take lean meats, chicken breast and the like with you.

There is only so much jerky you can eat!

I'm going to check the suggestions to see if there's anything I can use ... but I'm not hopeful.

lol dude ... the poster said he's allergic to milk products ... these are loaded with whey protein, so are absolutely no use to him at all (or me), but thanks for the thought.

You could try sprouted pulses like whole green moong; as well as any other pulse you like. Some may need to be steamed prior to eating; but it does depend on your taste and liking

I carry green moong sprouts mixed with pomegranate seeds; there's absolutely no need for any salt, sugar etc.
