Stuffing yourself with high-fat, high-cal meat and cheese isn't going to do anyone any flavours.  Tasty, easily prepared alternatives are: fish, nuts, eggs, pulses, tofu.  

Try to include protein in every meal.  

Breakfast, for example.  Easily transportable oatmeal with nuts and seeds - Ultra Granola -   provides plenty of high quality plant protein with milk or yoghurt.  Or try seeded rolls with peanut butter.


Lunch calls for bulkier proteins.  Some of 67's favourites are:
