When we talk about foods that support children’s growth and foods that help with weight loss, we all perk up our ears, don’t we? Who wouldn’t be interested in beauties that will nourish the whole family healthily?Yes
Whether it is animal proteins or plant proteins that first come to mind, I have made a very useful list that includes ideas for you. Proteins that support cell formation, muscle growth and also keep you full with their dense structure should definitely be in our diet every day.
Here are the protein champion foods:
1- Of course, EGGS come first. It is both cheap and the champion of protein champions. My preference is always organic. It is not very expensive, it tastes much better (since fish food is not used, there is no smell, it is ridiculous 🙂 and it is also more respectful to the environment because it is organic. This is the reason why we add dozens of egg products on the site, and why we explain that it was pancake, crepe, meatball mixture where you can use lots of eggs. Crepe is an excuse, eggs are wonderful, my dear, because those eggs should be eaten.
2- Every type of CHEESE is on the protein list. Actually, there are many who put milk on the protein list, but as you know, lactose intolerance, that is, the inability to digest milk, is very common in our country. That’s why I hold dairy products in high regard, especially one kilo of hard cheese produced from 7 kg of milk or kashar cheese produced from 11 kg of milk. This year, upon your request, we did not close the sale of cheese on the site; of course, we increased the precautions. You said that we could not deprive you of Thracian flavors 🙂
3- ALMOND is a protein champion that you would never expect, but it is on the list. I don’t beat myself up by saying that it builds muscle and also makes you taller because it contains much more protein than other tree nuts in terms of calories. My preference is flour, so I can add it to every cake, pancake. Its sweet sister, PEANUT, is also on our list of course because it contains vitamin E as well as protein. These two beauties are also oily, so they should be consumed in moderation, I must say.)
4- CHICKEN and TURKEY BREAST are also tots that contain high protein instead of fat, especially among poultry meat. You can add them to a meal or add them boiled to rice (we did this on purpose, as you know :)) maybe fry them in a pan with some tomato paste and vegetable seasoning, but as long as you have them on your table at least 1-2 times a week. My preference is organic and locally produced chickens, which is the only thing we buy for production.
5- OATS are also on this list because they contain a very high amount of beta-glucan that supports immunity, in addition to nutrients such as magnesium and thiamine (vitamin B1), they also contain very good fiber that helps the intestines function. You don’t have to eat the tasteless, unsweetened porridge, mix 1 egg, 2-3 spoons of grated cheddar, 1 spoon of vegetable seasoning and 2-3 tablespoons of oatmeal and make it in a toaster, see how beautiful the protein champion oat toast is 🙂
6- You were wondering when YOGURT and KEFIR would be on the list, right? Okay, okay, I put it at number 6 :)) These are the two siblings that I definitely add to both my and my daughter’s diets every day. Definitely not the ready-made sugary smoothies from the market with fruit. If I can make it myself or if I don’t have time, organic yogurt or strained yogurt. If I’m going to strain it myself, I definitely drink its water, because it’s a vitamin B store 🙂 Kefir is also a tiny sip, 1 small tea glass is enough for me in the mornings for healing purposes. Come on, we definitely drink ayran, mother and daughter. Especially when we go out to eat, etc., instead of drinking cola, cold tea, or making others drink it, ayran is our biggest savior. If there is no iron deficiency, these beauties can be consumed with meat, by the way, let me mention that.
7- LEAN MEAT is also a very good source of protein as it is known. Here, fat is not only increasing the calories but also because it is animal fat, or rather because it is fat, it should be consumed in a controlled manner, that is why it is called lean meat. That is why we boiled lamb, which is a much cleaner alternative for our little ones. Be careful, meat broth also makes the meals more beautiful, but it is not on this list because the nutritional value of meatless meat broth is not that high. That is why in Turkey, only our lamb marrow and bone broth also contains lamb meat, my dears. As I say, everything has a reason in our country.)
8- If you ask how BROCCOLI got on this list, I would say it’s because it’s one of the greens with the most protein compared to its calories 🙂 For example, grate 1 small tree on the oat toast whose mini recipe I gave above. Or if you want it to be noticeable, you can look at our 3-piece green beauty.
9- All fish, especially TUNA , are of course on the list. Fish are both low in calories and protein champions. Why do I say tuna in particular, but because canned is the form you can safely store for the longest time without the risk of spoilage. As you know, health experts say 2 fish a week. Tuna goes very well with pasta, and it can be a dip sauce with some greens, small cloves of onion, garlic and maybe a little mayonnaise. That’s why their clean forms without the worry of mercury are on our site.
10- Of course, a list of protein champions cannot be complete without mentioning LENTILS . I constantly share recipes for stews, soups, meatballs, pastries and even fritters with you because lentils mean both protein and fiber – no matter what color they are 🙂
11- PUMPKIN SEEDS are also on this list. Don’t be surprised because it is the most protein-containing beauty among seeds in terms of its calories. It also contains iron, magnesium and zinc, which supports immunity. That’s why we added it to the site, not just to decorate the shaped soup photos. But you can also decorate, I don’t mind 🙂
12- SHRIMP is another protein champion, my dears. That’s why we include shrimp casserole in our food list every 2-3 weeks. Make it with lots of vegetables, you’ll see that it cooks very easily. Especially with some cheddar cheese on top, tey tey tey.
