I'm usually under my daily calorie goal set here on MFP (1200 calories/day). I'm really thinking it's the protein, but how do I cut that out without now feeling constantly hungry?

Because it's dehydrated, you can even boil extra water, which eliminates more of the soduim, or even throw out some of the seasoning.
