Microwavable foods that are high in protein?

[Yarg!]

Sometimes I dont want to cook so I usually eat something out of the can. I found that some microwavable foods can be very high in protein. Here are some that I found:

Stag Chilli 425g can= 28 grams of protein
Tuna 133g can= 24grams of protein
Campbell's chunky beef 540ml can= 18 grams of protein
I eat about 2 cans per meal sometimes and drink 2 classes of milk after, so I get around 50 grams of protein per meal( milk is 8.5 grams per cup).
I also eat these meatballs from safeway that have around 14 grams of protein per 4 ( I eat around 16 per sitting).


What are some microwavable foods that you find to be rich in protein?

Well, i love to cook my foods.... So i don't really do the microwave...

But I do eat canned chicken breast - with a dash of hot sauce or by itself.

There are some Budget Gourmet - Manicotti things. They are 1.00$ each, and they taste awesome... They have 11gs each in them (not exactly a perfect food, but it's good to eat a few every so often as a treat)

I bought a sh*t load of healthy choice microwavable dinners yesterday. They look real good (content). Various meals have anywhere for 20-30 grams of protein.

Sweedish Meatballs is the best. Also Meatloaf and Salsibury steak are good.

Just watch out for tons of sodium in those canned or boxed microwave foods

Been there done that SEVERAL times, Dutch!

I bought this micro-wave poacher for my eggs. It's microwave safe---You put a tsp. of water in each compartment then cook on high for a minute. Works like a charm! NO MESS EITHER!

Try cooking up several meals on the weekend, Yarg! You can freeze 'em then nuke 'em during the week. I know, I know, it takes a lot of work and prep, but think of all the time you'll NOT have to worry about what's for dinner during the week!
