High-Protein Grains That Can Transform Your Diet GRAIN GAINS
Oats You likely already have oats in your pantry. This all-purpose grain is gluten-free and packs 6 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber per cup. You can add oats to breads, desserts, and various breakfast dishes.
If you’re trying to build muscle or improve your overall health, you already know how vital ample protein is to your diet. Most people turn to lean meats, eggs, nuts, seeds, and even dairy to add protein to their diet, but many don’t consider grains a great protein source. However, a few excellent high-protein grains can provide the same benefits as other protein sources while supplying us with more fiber and other essential nutrients. Any grain with more than 4 grams of protein per cup is considered high-protein. You can find most high-protein grains at any supermarket, but you should head to the closest Whole Foods for the best selection. If you’re unsure where to start, here are three high-protein grains you can easily incorporate into your diet.
Quinoa This high-protein grain has grown in
popularity significantly in recent years, and for good reason. One cup of cooked quinoa adds 8 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber to your diet. Most people use it as a substitute for rice in soups and salads, but its uses go far beyond that. Some might even enjoy it as a hot cereal to replace sugary breakfast options. Sorghum If you haven’t heard of sorghum, get ready because it’s taking the country by storm.
Sorghum is a staple in many Indian and African dishes. A cup of cooked sorghum will have around 7 grams of protein, 4 grams of fiber, and all the B vitamins, iron, and magnesium you need to improve your overall health. Other high-protein grains worth investigating include millet, buckwheat, wild rice, and teff. Once you discover the power and magic of high-protein grains, you’ll wonder why you didn’t explore them sooner.
CLIENT TESTIMONIALS “I HIGHLY recommend Holland & Usry! I was hit by a drunk driver and was badly injured. As the medical bills mounted and insurance companies became more and more difficult to deal with I decided to hire a lawyer. I am so glad that I chose Rob Usry to represent me. I felt a load of stress taken off my shoulders after our first meeting. Rob and Rose kept me up to date throughout the whole process. Rose was very patient with me and she was such a pleasure to work with. Rob is absolutely brilliant! He really went the extra mile to fight for me. He has a great personality and is very easy to talk to. I don’t believe I would have gotten such amazing results with any other law firm. I can’t express enough gratitude for the incredible work they did for me!” —Anonymous Review “Litigation is a difficult, challenging process that is inherently frustrating. I was thankful to have Rob’s wisdom, guidance, and patience to help me navigate the process. As other reviewers have stated, Rob is refreshingly forthright and candid, and he made me feel like he cared about me and my family. Most importantly though, he kept me informed and always took the time to explain what was happening, what our strategy was, and how I needed to approach things. I really appreciated that. Also, working with Rose and Pam was a dream — they are completely delightful and always took great care of me. Thank you guys for everything!” —Anonymous Review
