4. Oats
When it comes to grains, most people do not realize that they can be a good source of protein. This is true in most cases as most grains are high in carbs and do not provide that much protein. However, oats are one of the exceptions as they are one of the best and most healthy grains that there are. Oats not only contain a high amount of protein, but they also contain high amounts of thiamin, manganese, magnesium, as well as several other important nutrients.
In addition, oats have a high amount of fiber, which is important for digestion. A half of a cup of uncooked oats has roughly thirteen grams of protein and about 300 calories. This means that about fifteen percent of the calories of oats come from protein. Try eating a bowl of oats every morning to start your day with a good boost of protein and nutrients.
