10: Celeste Gives Up … Protein Deficiency
Week 10 Challenge: Eat more protein
For this week’s challenge, I’m going to up the protein ante.
Lately, I’ve been eating a lot of carby junk, and boy does it taste good. But, turns out instant oatmeal and popcorn don’t have many nutrients. Surprise!
I think my main source of protein right now is froyo. OK, I’m kidding. A little.
I’m not going to be tracking my protein intake (since I’m trying to walk away from logging), but I will make a conscious effort to eat more protein, especially for breakfast and snacks. More eggs, yogurt, beans, edamame and lean meats pleaseeee. Maybe I’ll even pick up some protein powder, since I haven’t had any in a few months.
I just made a hella bomb chicken chili with 1,204 red peppers, black beans and garbanzo beans (among other things). That’ll definitely boost my protein for the next couple of days.
What are your favorite protein sources?
