High protein rich foods to start your day

Starting your day with protein rich foods will not only keep you fuller for longer and reduce the mid-morning munchies. Here are a few ideas for you to try:

  1. Eggs. Eggs are such a versatile food. Scramble, boil, poach or make an omelette. You can add extra egg white for more protein. Eggs are a great source of protein and healthy fats which will keep you full for longer
  2. Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt has double the amount of protein per serving compared to natural yogurt. Add berries, dash of honey and sprinkle with some nuts. This is a great ‘on the go breakfast’ as its quick and easy to take with you to work
  3. Protein smoothie. Smoothies can be a good high protein and high fibre breakfast. Add a scoop of protein powder for a whopping 25g of protein. For fibre add a handful of berries or a banana, a tablespoon of flaxseeds, chia seeds or nut butter
  4. Poha: Turn this traditionally high carb meal into a high protein meal by adding some chana daal to your oil and frying for a few minutes before adding your other ingredients. Or add scrambled tofu and eat with Greek yogurt
  5. Pudla:  Add some quinoa flour or oat flour to besan flour (chick pea flour) for added protein. Adding a variety of flours will increase the protein. Add some Greek yogurt to your mixture for additional protein

Try any of these and you will notice a difference in your hunger levels which can support weight loss
