I keep this list with me always:

Fish - I eat a lot of seafood
Lean beef ( although I do not eat beef)
Skinless chicken or turkey ( I will have these maybe once or twice a week)
Low Fat dairy - cheese sticks, dannon light and fit yogurt
Eggs - for breakfast or hardboiled in salads or made into egg salad with a tsp of light mayo
Beans - edemame, chick peas, white black or red beans in soups and salads
reduced fat peanut butter
Pasta ( in moderation)
Grains -( in moderation)

For those that do protein shakes.. what do you use?

Any other options? Im at a loss outside of lean meats, and greek yogurt on how to get a lot more protein in!

Greek Yogurt.
I like Chobani best. If you get the Champions (marketed for kids) its only about 100 calories.
