I don't know if it's one of the top choices but I am starting adding a hard boiled eggs. I also have a shake mix that I drink daily. I also have peanut butter daily and almonds for snack. I am also looking for more protein and fiber choices.

I drink shakes to help me meet my goal, Fage plain is my go to for a protein fiber bomb with some Kellog's All Bran Buds and fruit or just the two by themselves for breakfast or snack. Peanut butter with some toast and milk is a good snack(to me!), I eat Milton's so it has a few grams of protein per slice along with peanut butter spread on it and a glass of milk. As empressichel said, nuts, lentils and a little more of what you are already eating.

Eggs are good, but I like to mix mine up with egg whites to add extra protein and less cals so I can splurge on the fat calories with nut butter and chocolate.

I know how hard it can be to hit the goal. I looked back at my food diary to when I was actively losing the weight last year with MFP and was ASTONISHED to see 30-40 gram days!

I also have a hard time hitting my protein goal. Has anyone every tried that unflavored protein powder that you can add to pretty much everything? I've been wanting to try it for a while, but wanted to get some feedback first.

I like to "splurge" on an iced coffee by using a protein shake and instant espresso. Super easy and it feels like a cheat without paying for it later. I usually use premier protein, but use what you prefer.

I occasionally have had a protein coffee.. depends on my mood:)
Greek Yogurt, Cheese, Eggs, Bacon (hello!!) Nuts are all my go tos for protein.
On top of that I increased my meat servings at meals by a few ounces. Thats the easiest way to get more, as most dieting women are under the impression we should only have 3oz of any meat. (not true)

I still rely a lot on protein bars and shakes simply because 240g of protein is a lot to get in without it:)
