I weigh 150 pounds and I have trouble eating enough protein a day from natural food. I don't want to use supplements, because I'm just a beginner. I need another 80g of protein.
Foods I eat everyday:
- cottage cheese (160g) = 22g
- milk (15 oz) = 12g
- oatmeal (100g) = 15g
- tuna (50g can) = 15g
- beans (200g can) = 15g
= only 79g of PROTEIN.
Now I know that meat, eggs, seeds and nuts are high in protein but you shouldn't eat it every single day because they are also high in fat. I eat meat 3 times a week and I also eat about 3 eggs a week.
So which foods should I include in my everyday meal plan?
