Protein is a very important nutrient in our diet, without it, we cannot synthesize essential amino acids.
Protein is much more than meat or fish.
Textured soy: one of the best sources of vegetable protein, it has 50% protein, is rich in iron and calcium, and is very satiating as it has 15g of fiber per 100g of food. We can buy 81g of protein for €1.
Black beans: 21g protein per 100g, with €1 we have 100g of protein, as they are rich in carbohydrates, they are also more caloric.
Grain: it is deficient in the amino acid Methionine but mixing it with quinoa, buckwheat or rice makes it complete. Because it has a lot of carbohydrates, it is also more caloric. 1€, 18g of protein.
Edamames: like soy isoflavones, with 1€ we can have 23g of protein.
Chicken breast: it's a reference and with 1€ we can get 30g of protein.
Whey Protein: digests and absorbs very well and can be easily consumed anywhere. With 1€ we get 25g of protein.
Eggs: another protein reference, 35g for €1 and it's a fantastic food.
