The Student Kitchen: 60 High Protein Snacks for Students Who Train

You are training four or five times a week. You are also dealing with student life: limited money, limited time, and a shared kitchen with one working hob ring, a fridge shelf the size of a shoebox and flatmates who consider your food communal.

Every nutrition guide you have read was written for someone with a full kitchen, a free Sunday and forty pounds a week for food. This one was not.

The Student Kitchen starts from the constraints and finds the protein anyway.

Inside the guide

• 60 high protein snacks, none taking longer than fifteen minutes
• Protein, cost, equipment and time shown on every single one
• 10 needing no kitchen and no fridge
• 10 needing only a kettle, a mug or a microwave
• 10 for before training
• 10 for after training
• 10 costing under £1 a serving
• 10 sweet options for the ten o'clock craving
• A twelve item shop, around £23, ranked by approximate protein per £1
• Search terms for Tesco, Sainsbury's and Asda
• A twenty minute Sunday routine
• A shopping list built to be screenshotted in the aisle
• A sources page, so you can check the reasoning rather than take it on trust

Included free: the Protein Shop Tracker

Supermarket prices change, so the spreadsheet lets you enter the prices where you actually shop and compare what protein your money is buying.

It also works out your daily target, how long your shop will last and your cost per day.

Your prices, not somebody else's.
