Protein Hacks - How to Add More Protein without Powder

There has been a huge influx of people calling for more protein in your diet. Dr’s, celebrities, even products we see day to day. I’m sure you’ve been in the store and have seen so many products now displaying “good source of protein” or “high protein” on their labels.

But do they all have complete protein sources? Are they actually great sources of protein? Some yes, but most no.

The question remains. How do you get more protein?

Here are some ways you can increase your protein intake without having to buy protein powder:

Add more lean meats to your meals.
Greek yogurt is a great snack and can be used in sauces to provide more protein
Use bone broth when cooking instead of normal vegetable or chicken stock

Supplementing with protein powder is not bad. It is a great resource for those who don’t have a lot of time and have trouble finding consistency with their meals but these options are great ways to add protein from whole food sources without supplementing.

What’s something you think you can add to your existing diet to add more protein? Let me know below!
