I have had many people ask me how I get enough protein in my new lifestyle diet. Well, I eat black beans, broccoli, plenty of spinach and some things made with tofu.
I found this article on yahoo about protein, the worst and best. For us and the environment.

I always find these articles interesting.
Some days I am sure I get more protein than other days. But overall I feel good, I have energy, and I don't feel hungry all the time.

I did not know that broccoli has protein in it. How very interesting! I never used to like broccoli until I went on Weight Watcher's. I learned to cook it in high heat in the oven, brush with a bit of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon or lime. Sooooo tasty! I also sometimes just steam it in the microwave with a tablespoon of water in the bottom of the bowl. Cook for 2 minutes on high and it's lovely. Thanks for the information!
ReplyDeleteI also eat plenty of organic natural peanut butter which has more protein than jiff, without the sugar and oil.
