Where to Find Protein If youre like most, you could probably use a change of pace to your diet beyond the regular old chicken breast. So, to spice up your diet, and your taste buds, here are 10 other protein sources to begin mixing into your weekly meal plans (in no particular order): 1.Eggs - Eat the whole egg, not just the white. The yolk is actually the most nutrient dense portion of the egg, providing a ton of vitamins and minerals...and it has the benefit of making the egg taste more better. 2. Shrimp - Grill em up, or sautee them in some organic butter or extra virgin olive oil. Mix with veggies and enjoy. 3. Salmon - An awesome fatty fish containing loads of protein and a healthy dose of healthy omega-3 fatty acids. 4. Greek Yogurt - Greek yogurt packs twice the protein of regular yogurt. Go with the plain variety and sweeten with a packet of stevia or truvia (favorite non-calorie sweetener) if youd like. 5. Ground Turkey - Super lean and great for chili. Mmm chili. Make some. Eat some. Enjoy some. 6. Pork - The other white meat, just as lean as chicken when you get the right cut. Go for the boneless chops and trim the outer fatty edge. 7. Chicken Sausage - You probably wont notice the difference between chicken sausage and regular pork sausage, but it contains a much more moderate amount of fat...great for those protein and carb meals. 8. Beans - Like black beans, kidney beans, red beans, navy beans, black eyed peas, lentils and the list goes on and on are actually the least expensive protein source in AMERICA (and probably every other part of the world as well). Low glycemic, crazy high in fiber. Add it to your turkey chili, or any other meal you want for that matter. 9. Bison - All the taste of beef while being incredibly lean. Great for protein and carb meals when youre wanting to limit the fat content of a meal while still packing a mean flavor punch. 10.Grass-fed Beef - Grass fed beef is rich in CLA, a special fat that has actually been shown to result in fat LOSS. Eat this...tastes great, great for your figure. Stewarts Personal Training & Nutrition Center 2351 Boston Post Rd Suite 403 Guilford , Ct 06437 203 415-8174 YOU CAN DO THIS !!!!!!!
