Protein Goal: 30 Grams at Breakfast
One of my goals the past couple months has been getting 30g of protein in at breakfast. When my health team first introduced this idea, I was skeptical that I could ever make that happen. I have never been a big breakfast eater… And following my own intuition, I never really got hungry until about 10 or 11 AM.
But… making changes means you sometimes need to try something different, challenge your limiting beliefs and step out of your comfort zone. And for my longevity, I really want to focus on building muscle and strength.So, I’ve been experimenting with different ways to make it easier to hit that 30g mark, especially with not much time to cook in the mornings. I realized that just between my greens and my collagen, I am already hitting 15g of protein! Then, some of my new grab & go favorites to make up for the other 15g (or MORE!) are Siggi’s yogurt, Catalina Crunch cereal, hard boiled eggs, Applegate Chicken Maple sausage and OWYN protein shakes.
Protein:
Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides (2 Tbsp = 9g)
Siggi’s Yogurt (16g)
Hard boiled eggs (2 eggs = 12g)
Applegate Chicken Maple sausage (3 links = 9g)
What are your protein go-to snacks and meals??
