Sardines are one of the most non-dairy, nutrient dense forms of calcium with a 135g tin usually containing 363mg of calcium. Choose a good quality tin of sardines with the bones. I like the brands Parmentier or King Oscar. This lunch contains a whopping 561.5mg of calcium to show you just how easy it is to incorporate calcium in a non-dairy way to your diet. See tip below for calcium amounts of other ingredients.
In order to get enough protein into our diet we have been adding extra protein sources to our eggs for a higher protein breakfast. Two large eggs contain 14g of protein but adding 80g of paneer cheese gives you another 14g of protein. This works for us for better glucose control, muscle growth and no sugar cravings or hunger.
In a bid to make sure we hit a decent amount of protein for breakfast we have been trialling ways to increase protein in our eggs. Two eggs is just 14g of protein, but adding 100g cottage cheese increases the protein to 25g. I have added a small amount of smoked salmon to increase the breakfast to 30g of protein. This is optional, but for my needs 30g of protein is optimal.
