Healthy protein lunch…

Question:

Trainerbob… Can you give me some protein suggestions for lunch?

Answer

Sure can… Let’s start with what I had for lunch today. I started with a small bowl of Quinoa (pronounced kinwa), which is a grain crop grown primarily for its edible seeds. It is high in protein and gluten free. It is also considered a complete protein and a superfood by NASA, such that it’s under consideration for space missions.

Next I added some cottage cheese, (large curd), for it’s calcium, followed by some small chunks of baked chicken. No salt but plenty of pepper to taste. The entire meal in low glycemic index and pretty filling.

Later, I’ll create a recipe page for everyone to post their favorite meals.
