11 Easy Sources of Protein You Could Be Missing Out On

Eggs

Eggs, especially those that are pastured or enriched with omega-3 fatty acids, are possibly one of the most efficient protein sources. They are also excellent sources of vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats. You can usually find pre-made hard-boiled eggs at the grocery store. But if you have some time, we recommend making your own.

Just place the number of eggs you want in a pot with water. When the water comes to a rolling boil, turn off the heat, cover the eggs, and let them sit for about 10 minutes, depending on how you like them. Then, strain the water, run cold water over the eggs, and peel off the shell.

You can find them in abundance in any market or store for only a few bucks. One egg crams 6g of high-quality protein, along with the other nutrients present in the egg. You can enjoy them hard-boiled, scrambled, poached, or in whatever way you like!
