Ok i'm only 21 year old and a college student that works part time so i never have time to sit at home and grill up chicken breasts anymore.. getting way too busy lately and been slacking in my diet, been trying for upwards of 6kcals 350g protein a day but lately i dont have time to eat anything good and looking at my diet its mainly fat and shitty food i was wondering if you guys have any ideas on good stuff (high in protein and cals) that i can eat that doesnt involve 10-20 minutes of preperation and i can eat it about anywhere.. k for good advice!

Protein powder is what keeps me alive. Milk and bagels are up there too. Raisins are pretty high in calories, and bananas are good too.

Try grilling at night before bed. I have to make some of my food for the next day then, you loose something in flavor, but at least you get good meals.

Bagels are the shit. 60 easy carbs right there. Put some deli turkey on 'em.

Nuts are great for calories as well. You can take eggs with you too.

6000 cals huh....that is some shitty eating
If you're stressed about prep. make all your meat one week in advance or once every three days or something like that. Yes it may taste like shit being in the fridge that long but youre not eating it cuz it tastes good. If you're serious about eating clean you'll find ANY way to achieve it. Protein powder, legit protein bars, and proper prior planning for the carbs and protein from whole foods

I agree bagel sandwitches are top notch

you could also prepare most of your meal on sunday for most of the week
i usually prepare my lunck at the end of the day for the next day usually arounf 10 pm
i work 50 hours a week and it is hard to find the time to prepare your food but you can always find the time

 

[shamrock11]

I'm like sweed I cook my food for the next day the night before. I have it done and I can take it with me anywhere. Hell microwaves are everywhere.

 

[gymratforlife]

I grill 10lb bags of sams or cosco chicken breast and boneles chicken thighs Ill marinate them in some caribean jerk seasoning for a few hours then fire up the grill and grill away I then bag them 2 pieces per bag and fill up to big tuperware containers and freeze them.i dont cook them all the way through as the microwave will do that and if you cook them through then when you microwave them they will be dry as cardboard,I just throw them in the microwave in the bag and they cook in their own juice and come out cooked throughly and really juicy and spicy.I also carry one of those little tuperware containers with 60 grams of protein powder with me and a water bottle so I just throw it in add water shake and I got a quick 50g of protein when needed.

 

[Stacemranger]

Nice idea.

Get a george forman grill it takes 8 min to grill up several chicken breasts.Or 10 min for steaks.I usually cook mine while i am eating breakfast that way they are still full of flavor for the day.You can also try different protein shakes however i think solid foods are much better.Good luck.

Buy tons of cans of Nalley chili. It's cheap and gives you around 40 grams of protein with 60 grams of carbs. I'm in the same boat as you with school and work. I keep cans of chili and tuna in my gym bag. Usually I just eat it right out of the can cause I don't have a microwave handy. Also, find some high calorie protein bars to eat between classes.

[UA_Iron]

forget the weight gainer shakes make your own. 2 scoops whey, 4tbsp anpb, 1/2 cup oats and skim milk...though you dont drink milk

eggs can be scrambled fast.

I wouldnt eat bagels, even if I was bulking.

 

[Mithrandir]

I can't get over that you do not drink milk....sinful.

Egg sandwhiches are awesome...I make these all throughout college so far...three eggs, turkey, cheese, bread and picante sauce, can you go wrong?

if you want more carbs and calories, then cut the bagle in half and make a bagel sandwhich..

tuna is fast and easy.

spaghetti is great too, wheat noodles, and meat, good deal. the sauce mya be high in sodium, but oh well.

Ya I forgot about the canned salmon. I usually save that for work though because it smells and I can't be smellin around the girlies at school. I don't give a shit about work thouth. Good post StellarTiggy!

Yep. Tuna pounches/cans, but the pouches can get awfully expensive. Deli meat works well. Also, if you're at a good deli they should have pre-made grilled chicken breast. If you're not a cheap bastid, you could stock up on those I remember the last time I took tuna to class with me...that is, UNFORTUNATELY remember because I much rather forget it. I've bought slices of turkey right before class before and eaten them in class. Ectomorph? Unsalted nuts and sunflower seeds would be ideal. Trail mix in general. Basically, find a really good deli that has a crapload of salads so that you'd find at least something that isn't drenched in mayo. Other than that, I know the walbaums around here has "no msg" deli meat.

Here are some cool ideas for when you have time to "cook" :

trans fat free english muffins, tomato sauce/paste/herbs/spices/blahblayadda, part skim mozzarella - mini pizzas

canned tuna and/or salmon scrambled with boiled egg or just egg whites (however you prefer) and onion/celery - basically whatever you want to make tuna salad with, but use a variety of mustards to mix instead of mayo, put ground black pepper and a crapload of garlic powder/granulated garlic and stuff tablespoons of it in a few egg whites cut in half -- you've made devilled eggs

buy salad mix and made chix breast (or you can used canned fish) and throw some diff nuts in there..I personally use walnuts

If you like cheese, you might wanna try buying some deli meat and melting the cheese on top of the meat on your sandwich (opened faced melt) - kinda like a tuna melt 'cept with deli meat

Protein bars would be one last thing you could resort to but if you need something high calorie you're much better making your own.

Cottage cheese or dry curd farmer cheese with peanut butter works for protein/fat

Cottage cheese with fiber one and/or sugarfree jam or jelly or syrup

Seriously, take a sunday off to cook...get in touch with your feminine side

Best of luck

BBQ chicken breast are easy. Fill a large oven safe container with enough chicken for several days. Cover with BBQ sauce. Cook at 400 for about 45min. Store them in a covered container filled with BBQ sauce. They will last about a week in the fridge and get better as they sit in the sauce.
