Favorite Protein rich foods

[moonbeam 1]

Ok I have a few list of Protein rich foods. What I need now are some ideas from people and suggests for someone who doesn't cook very well. How do you put the protein sources together. What are your most frequently used sources?

Greek yogurt is also a great source of Protein.< /p>

Yep I'm boring. I like steak (grilled, well done) ground beef, round steak, roast, chicken (baked, boiled, roasted, fried, bbq'd) Pork (chops, ham, bacon) fish (well, kind of) shrimp, lobster and dairy (aka cheese)

Just discovered the joys of CHili...I have to start making my own though in a slow cooker. I usually use the Hormel pop in micorwave numbers which are actually good!

Greek yogurt with fruit at bottom...tho getting weary of them.

cheese .....and not the low fat kind. I should curb this but I

eat so little now I think I can afford the calories. :tongue2:

Some really simple things I've prepared recently:

Meatloaf

Fish and shrimp tacos

Slow cooker chicken parmesan

Slow cooker beef stew

Beanie weenie (my husband loves this :tongue2:)

Oven BBQ chicken

Slow cooker ham, potatoes, and green Beans

Grilled chicken or salmon on salad

Tomato, basil, and mozzarella salad

I LOVE to cook, and there are some really fast, easy recipes out there. Allrecipes.com is my favorite recipe website; Campbells Soup also has some really simple, tasty recipes--lots of easy one-dish meals.

All my faves have already been mentioned. I'm a pretty decent cook and can give you simple recipes if you like. Just private message me and let me know what things you like

and I'll try to provide easy cooking recipes....

CRAB!!!

I love crab and make crab cakes regularly, which I freeze and have available when the family has something for lunch/dinner that isn't good for me. You can really reduce the calories and carbs and still maintain great flavor by using egg whites instead of whole eggs and using reduce fat mayo. By the way, each crab cake is only 105 cals w/ 16g of Protein.

I also make crab salad.

Beef Jerky (I love the Worlds Kitchen brand...Amazon.com)

Seapoint roasted Edemame and Seapoint roasted soynuts...also ordered from Amazon.com

Pure Protein and Myoplex Lite bars...Walmart or Amazon.com
