    I been doing 1/2 cup of 1% cottage cheese mixed with 1 whole can of chunky light tuna (water drained). 170 calories with 33grams protein. Really good and filling

    I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and pick cottage cheese. That or a whey protein shake. Both are delicious and filling.

    I'm so going trying that. Thanks for sharing.

    PB2 on an apple. Tuna for breakfast (I like cottage cheese in it too) and this week I discovered a scrambled egg mixed with 2T hummus on toast tastes kind of like egg salad.

    Arditarose- How do you make protein fluff?

    Now to the question- I like tuna, love cottage cheese and fruit like pineapple or berries. Love PB2 as well on toast or apples etc. veggie and fruit tray with hummus-

    No matter how hard I try I can't get down cottage cheese. I like Greek yogurt though and almonds. Occasionally I'll have a protein bar.

    Skyr yogurt from Iceland. It is high protein and low calories. I normally buy the honey flavoured version.

    A 150 gram serving has 110 calories and 14 grams of protein.

    An added benefit is that it is delicious :)

    I pickle some of my hard boiled eggs with onions and sriracha. Spicy, vinegary yumminess.

    I use 20 grams of casein protein powder, 6 grams xanthan gum, about 8-10 oz of any liquid (water, milk, whatever you want), and mix with hand mixer (or stand if you have one) for 15 minutes. I add PB2, chocolate chips. You can add whatever you want though. That's the most basic recipe. A lot of people use fruit but I don't like fruit calories...prefer chocolate ;)

    6oz Starkist Tuna packet mixed with a horseradish or dijon based mustard. 185 calories - ish (depending upon how much mustard you use), 0.8g carbs, and 39g protein

    Of course the recipe is on my phone, and I can't have it out at work. But, I know it's vinegar, sliced onion, water and sriracha. You bring it to a boil, then let it simmer. Let it cool, and pour it over peeled hard boiled eggs. Then toss in the fridge. I shook the jar up every day, and just left them in there til used up. (Longest I've had them is about 10 days.)

    I love the Smithfield Ready Snack Go! They sell them at Walmart in the section where the Lunchables are at. The ones I buy are only 90cal and 10g protein. They taste really good.

    The Body Fortress Whey protein powder from Walmart is great in a smoothie with 1/2 low fat yogurt, 1/2 c skim milk, 1/2 c frozen raspberries and 1/4 c orange juice. Very good, high protein and can be meal replacement if in a hurry and on the run.
