    Nuts. Heck you can keep them in your pocket. Not a lot of protein is that easy

    Nuts are more of a fat source, I don't really eat those for protein. My favorite sources are eggs (omelet style stuffed with cheese and/or avocado), quest bars (double chocolate chunk & coconut cashew), protein powders (current fave it trutein pumpkin pie), boca spicy chik'n patties, and fage non-fat plain greek yogurt mixed with a couple of packets of stevia and heath candy pieces or chocolate chips.

    I love fish! Yellow fin Tuna steaks. (I love Orcabay brand- they come frozen pre-packaged) and are sustainable!

    They also have same protein as chicken breast but less calories (also lower in fat and cholesterol than chicken.)

    I found a new way to cook eggs, scrambled eggs boiled in zip-lock but is it unhealthy? Is cooking it in plastic a bad idea?

    Meat.
    I don't know why people keep saying nuts. Almonds, which are about the best protein wise, have only about 4-6 grams for about 160 k-calories. Nuts are a good source of FAT. You might as well say whole wheat bread which has almost 4g of protein for 70 kcals.

    I was shocked at how much protein can be consolidated in a small block of tofu! That and legumes of any kind. I throw hemp powder in my smoothies (lactose intolerance and a low budget make many other protein powders out of the question).

    Bacon.. but not just any bacon? Applewood smoked!! Ohhhh so good. *lol*

    But seriously though. I like to get pork roasts because they last several meals, sandwich ham is awesome just to roll up and eat with pickles or something, Hard boiled eggs (I like to dip them in Lighthouse blue cheese), Steak... umm. yeah.
