There are lots
of ways to boost the protein in salads, everyone should be aiming to get 25 — 30
grams of protein per meal adding beans (edamame, garbanzo, and black beans are some
of my favorites) and adding a modest amount
of nuts with heart - healthy oils like (almonds, walnuts and
pistachios are so good) are two ways to reach optimal protein intake — I also love these Snack Crisps from Eat Enlightened.
For instance, almonds and
pistachio nuts are higher in protein than chickpeas per 100
grams, but you wouldn't really eat that amount
of nuts in one sitting because
of too much fat and calories etc..
