Get 20g of protein into breakfast
Tomorrow, make breakfast the meal with the most protein in it: about 20g. Keep the rest of your morning the same and notice when you next feel hungry.
Easy ways to do it
- Whisk 2 eggs into your besan chilla batter: about 24g of protein instead of 14g.
- Swap paneer or eggs for tofu in a bhurji: 200g of firm tofu makes a breakfast with about 37g.
- If poha, upma or idli is your usual, keep a small bowl and add 2 boiled eggs on the side. Those three dishes have only 7 to 8g of protein in a normal portion.
- Not an Indian breakfast? Three eggs with vegetables come to about 19g.
