Protein Packed Snacks and Meals

Post yours here:

A McDonald’s bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich has 420 calories and a whopping 23 grams of fat.

I set off in search of something better, healthier, but equally as delicious. This is what I found...

1 x slice bacon with fat removed, or even better, turkey bacon
2 x large egg (one yolk removed)
1 x slice of low fat cheese
1 x 100 calorie, high fiber English muffin

Half the calories, less than half the fat, and a good 18 grams of protein. Not a bad way to start your day and it can be prepared the night before, and even frozen!

Wouldn't consider 18 grams of protein has protein-packed personally.

Just done this in for my tea, will set me up nicely for a ten mile run later:

Couscous with roasted tomato and basil, tuna and sweetcorn with sweet chilli sauce drizzled over, 60g carbs, 45g protein. Comes in at about 550 calories:

For breakfast I normally have an instant oats shake (got them from myprotein) and a banana. I prefer not to load up on protein on a morning and save it for later in the day as I normally don't train until after work.

Never been one for a large breakfast as I hate feeling bloated. I prefer to have a protein bar (half before and half after training) and/or a protein packed evening meal.

There's no need to cram huge amounts of protein around a workout mate. Same with the post-workout shakes, totally unnecessary from a timing perspective.
