Hi can anyone help me, I eat mainly a vegetarian diet no red meat, no fish and I only eat a little chicken now and then, My main meals tend to be veg packed but I struggle to fit in more protein without being fat filled. Can anyone make me suggestions I am probably looking for foods on the go, snack food items. Thanks :flowerforyou:

    Protein powder is the obvious and you could make your own protein bars.

    Otherwise, google the Chocolate Covered Katie blog - she does healthy twists of treats like brownies etc using chickpeas and beans and healthy sugars. That should get you started on some high protein treats.

    Fage Total 0% yogurt (Add fruit or honey, though. It tastes horrible on its own!!)

    bean, lentils, quinoa and nuts (yes they're a bit higher in fat but really good for you)
