Whey protein powder is probably your best option since you can pack away several for many days ahead with containers, protien bars are convenient but expensive, manageable if bought in bulk purchases, For something homemade consider adding an extra side chicken or beef or whatever protien rich food you’d like.

Egg bakes and quiches are really good and easy to make a big batch ahead of time. Pack it full with veggies and limit the dairy and it is amazingly easy!

Pinto beans in the crockpot, wild rice, steamed broccoli and garlic mashed potatoes. It makes a good dish mixed together plus onion powder, garlic powder, salt and peper.

We try to always have hard boiled eggs in the refrigerator. They are great as is, with avocados on toast, or with spices like curry or paprika.

Make it easy as pie no need for recipes here. High protein foods include eggs and nuts. The only prep here is to make sure they are ready to go. Every few days, boil a batch of eggs for the next few days. For the nuts, pack small containers of a mix that you like so they are ready to grab and go. Cheers

As for me it’s not important how tasty the food im going to prepare, it is the joyful in my heart that inspires me to do so..and it comes naturally- great cooking😘

Smoothies! They’re super easy, and can keep for a day or two! I usually use frozen fruit, coconut water, pineapple juice, and yogurt!

I would like to find options for breakfast, lunch and dinner . I feel that having more proteins would help me to feel more satiated

Two things I eat everyday with protein that you can make ahead are boiled eggs and Greek yogurt parfait. I use plain Greek yogurt mixed with thawed frozen blueberries and raspberries and top with Kashi Chocolate cereal and a banana.

I love the following : Rice Cake with peanut butter, banana and a drizzle of maple syrup. You can add hamp seed on top too.
