I am the type of person who needs to clock in my protein and make sure I get enough every day.
I know they say the amount of protein you need should roughly match your weight in kilograms. So, it’s important for me to fill my body with high-quality proteins daily.
I don’t necessarily take protein shakes—you can if you want—but I try to get all my protein from natural foods. That’s why I came up with a list of ideas to help you reach your protein goals.
I tend to lean towards foods like eggs, beef, chicken, fish, and a whole lot of nuts.
Yes, I love nuts—not only because they are a great protein source, but also because they are packed with healthy fats, which are really good for you.
Another type of protein I take every day, and the only supplement I’d ever consider, is collagen—mainly because it’s so hard to get enough collagen unless you have time to make bone broth every single day.
Even if you don’t have time, these recipes will help you come up with plenty of protein-packed snacks to build up your intake.
Personally, I think the highest protein sources are eggs, grass-fed beef, and fish.
I eat almost a cup of mixed nuts every day, including almonds, pistachios, walnuts, macadamias, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds—pretty much any type of nut and seed—and I spread it out throughout the day.
That includes peanut butter, which I like to spread on sprouted or whole-grain bread—it’s nutritious and super easy to make.
Anyway, here are the best protein snacks you can enjoy throughout the day to boost your protein intake!
