Protein is satiating.

Coupled with strength training, it helps build muscle. (Or prevent muscle loss.)

Here are a few ideas to add more protein into your diet.

If you aren’t sure whether or not you’re eating enough protein, hit reply and ask me!

Ideas To Add More Protein

Increase Portions by 25%
- Add an extra Egg, a few slices of meat, ½ a piece of fish, etc.
Include Protein in Snacks
- Jerky, Left overs, nuts, edamame, hard-boiled egg, bars
Add protein powder to smoothie
Choose lean meats: Opt for chicken breast, turkey, lean beef, and pork loin for meals.
Eat more fish: Salmon, tuna, cod, and tilapia are excellent sources of protein and healthy fats.
Include legumes and beans: Add lentils, chickpeas, black beans, or kidney beans to soups, stews, salads, and chilis.
Use cottage cheese: Enjoy it plain, with fruit, or as a base for savory dishes.
Incorporate edamame: Snack on steamed edamame or add them to stir-fries and salads.
Choose higher-protein bread: Look for bread made with whole grains, seeds, or added protein.
Add protein to oatmeal: Stir in protein powder, nuts, seeds, or nut butter.
Make protein-packed pancakes or waffles: Use protein powder in your batter or serve with high-protein toppings like Greek yogurt.
Load up on vegetables with some protein: While not as high as meat, vegetables like broccoli, spinach, and Brussels sprouts contribute small amounts of protein that add up.
Plan meals around protein: Instead of thinking about sides first, make protein the centerpiece of your lunch and dinner.
