Protein Rich Food #8: Nuts
Nuts are not only useful in cooking but are also great as a stand-alone snack. They can be a very convenient type of food, while also being very healthy. They tend to be packed full of vitamins, minerals and other important nutrients, including protein.
Almonds, in particular, are high in protein content, while they have also been shown to reduce cholesterol. The peanut is also high in protein, although technically speaking it is not a nut but a legume, placing it in the same family as peas and beans. There is also a wide variety of nuts, meaning you are likely to find something that you enjoy.
