Whether you are feeding a brood or simply trying to eat healthfully on the budget, you are always looking for a good deal at the grocery store.
A few of my favorite budget friendly protein sources are:
Eggs - boil them, scrabble them, put them in a crestless quiche, just 2 of these nutrient & protein packed beauties make a portion of protein.
Bone-in, skin-on chicken - yes, the boneless, skinless breasts are such a time-saver, but you can save a bundle if you have the time to take off the skin at home
Canned Tuna - go for the variety packed in water vs. oil
Plain Greek Yogurt - get the big tub vs. individual containers.
Beans -high in fiber & protein, this has long been a favorite protein source for vegetarians.
Peanut butter - go for the all natural variety where the only ingredient is peanuts! Remember a LITTLE goes a long way. Add to oatmeal or your favorite smoothie for a boost of protein.
Cottage cheese - pair it with fruit or put on top of a salad with a little sea salt & pepper, yum!
