Reply With QuoteSkim milk and Ezekial breads are more carb sources than protein sources. (Skim milk has 12g carbs and only 8g protein per cup).
Steak is great if you get the right cut. Top round is nearly as lean as chicken.
Pork loin is pretty lean too (but I don't like pork).
Canned chicken is just fine as a protein source, but I don't like the taste, personally.
That doesn't seem too limited to me...But I get bored of chicken breast so I trade it for steak. Mmmmm.....

More protein ideas...
I've been doing for a few years now and it seems like my protein variety is very limited...
Right now I'm using:
Whey / Casien Powders
Skim Milk
Canned Tuna / Salmon / Chicken
Chicken Breast
Ezekial Bread (complete)
Cottage Cheese
Egg Whites
Anything else I can add to the mix? I'm pretty much maintaining right now at 6%...
BTW is the canned chicken a waste? Any point of eating it?

Is canned chicken really a good source? I would think it would be not as optimal as real chicken breast? I actually love the stuff, it's always pink but I guess thats normal because I went to the website.

Turkey
Tuna
Salmon
Ling
Cod
Brim
Halabit
Orange Rougy
King fish
Hake
Squid
Scollops
Shrimp
Muscles
Lobster
Oysters
Bison/ Buffalo
Kangaroo
Emu
Ostrich
Lean Beef
Elk/ Deer
Lean Lamb
Lean Pork
Eggs/ Egg whites
Cottage cheese
Tofu/Soy (better if you get fermented products...)
Horse.... (hey - the eat it in Europe!!)
And.... other proteins that you can use would be:
Milk/ dairy (yes, also some carbs)
Beans (incorrectly called an "incomplete" protein... They do have all the amino acids, but are 'limited' in one or more of the essentials... butthis is not really a huge problem when eaten in a mixed and well balanced diet)....~
