I've been trying to slowly work more protein into my diet as I've been eating a lot of carbs and fats lately. Looking for some good high protein snacks and meals that are relatively cheap. What high protein foods do you love?

    Fish has a lot of protein. Lean turkey for the number of calories has a high amount of protein.

    I've started putting protein powder in lots of things. I got tired of shakes. Google protein powder recipes and I think you'll be surprised by what you can make with it.

    are you vegetarian at all?

    cottage cheese (or cheese in general), plain greek yogurt, hard boiled eggs, nuts, peanut butter, edamame, jerky, other meat.

    Try a few ounces of sliced lunch meat and cheese, or 1/4 c. cashews or almonds, or 2-4 tbsp. hummus and vegetables.
