Protein Ideas

What are your dietary restrictions? Vegetarian, no dairy, no soy...?

This topic comes up a lot, too. You might try searching the forum.

I'm not a big fan of protein powder in drinks, so I go with milk and peanut butter to add protein. Neither of those are low calorie, though.

Yesterday I rounded out my protein with a filet of tilapia.

Don't know what ay of your goals are but my morning drink consists of 1/2 scoop chocolate Body Fortress protein powder (15g), 1/2 c So Delicious unsweetened almond milk with 2X protein (5 g) & 1 c cold coffee. That gives you 20 g to start the day. Sometimes I add peanut butter or PB2 and whir it up in my nutra bullet. Throughout the day my go-to's are greek yogurt, cottage cheese, omelets, avocados, nuts, quest protein bars and of course all the usual suspects such as ground turkey, chicken, fish of all kinds, beef on occasion like maybe once or twice a month (I just don't prefer it but it is an excellent protein source). Don't know if any of that helps or not. You could also Google" foods high in protein" for a list and see what strikes your particular fancy.

Add greek yogurt to your protein shake. Gives it a thicker texture and a boost of protein, and 0 fat (if you get the 0% fat one). I eat Fage Greek yogurt.

Other protein ideas: lentils, beans, oatmeal.

Vita Whey by Vita Source is tasteless and dissolves completely. You can mix it with pretty much anything. I love it--most versatile protein powder ever!
