Got This from another OH person
Mar 28, 2007
I warn in advance that some may not agree with my list, but it worked very well for me through these last months. I am glad to share the things that helped me through such a rough time.
-Slim fast low carb shakes…20 protein grams
-Stallone high protein pudding…20 grams You can also make your own using vanilla protein powder and jello brand pudding in the little containers.
-Yogurt….you can also add protein to it and eat it
-Cottage cheese or cottage doubles…11 grams of protein plus good carbs with the fruit.
-South Beach breakfast bars…10 grams of protein
-Refried Beans
-Lima Beans
-Chili…25 protein grams
-Crab cakes…11 grams min.
-Crab legs
-Tuna…whole can is 26 grams…half is 13
-Cheese cubes 2%…9 grams per 7 pieces
-Corned beef hash….20 grams per cup…2 cups per can I do realize that it’s a little high in calories but if you figure your day around it you will be able to have it.
-Peanut butter
-Turkey slices (3)…gives you 9 grams of protein
-Chicken Breast…25 grams
-Turkey Breast
-Power crunch bars
-Filet mignon…or other quality cuts of lean meats…25 grams or more
-Cream soups…about 9 grams
-Protein shakes…23-34.5 grams I mix mine with crystal light for flavor. I have trouble drinking it straight from the tub.
-Atkins high protein bars…5 bars to a pack with 14 grams
-Liquid protein from GNC…18 grams from 3 tablespoons of liquid
-Hard boiled eggs
-Pork Rinds… I do know that these aren’t a complete protein, but with meat or beans it is.
-Turkey mignon….I found these at Aldi’s for 4.99 for a 4 pack.
-Kashi high protein cereal…also good for fiber source. And you can also throw a handful of kashi in with your high protein pudding to boost the protein and add some fiber.
-Canadian Bacon…3 slices if you can eat them
-Spinach Quiche…7 grams…for the recipe just ask. And its good carbs to boot
-Pepperoni and cheese…I use the stars and moons cheese for this and buy one pillow pack and eat about 5 of them…sometimes I add crackers if I want a little carb and make it into a lunchable type meal.
-Crab Salad…home made or store bought
-Deli chicken slices wrapped in boston lettuce
-Baked or pan blackened salmon or talapia or orange roughy
-The chicken of the sea tuna steaks in the pack in the tuna aisle…25 grams in each steak
-Mussels
-Sardines
-Oysters
-Cooked Shrimp…unthawed and eaten
-Sauteed portabello mushrooms…cooked using I can’t believe it’s not butter.
-Stuffed mushrooms
-Nuts…peanuts, pistachios, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds (without the shell). Just watch your sodium intake when eating them.
I am sure I have forgotten something…but this is a good start for you.
