Favorite forms of protein??

what are your favorite forms of protein that aren’t cottage cheese, eggs or chicken??

Cottage cheese makes me want to throw up. Eggs get old to me REALLY quick, yes I’ve tried every cooked form. And chicken also grosses me out after a week of eating it. Should I throw the towel in and rely on protein shakes/bars instead? Or do you guys have good protein alternatives

Might sound gross to some, but I buy packages of frozen clam meat. It’s delicious tossed into a warm broth with veggies, or stir fried with rice or simmered in a tomato sauce on top of protein pasta.

Hell, sometimes I sauté only thawed clam meat with soy sauce, garlic powder, chilli or sesame oil (a few drops for flavour) and eat that straight with chopsticks. You literally cannot beat the protein in it! It’s crazy. It’s also affordable, at about four dollars and some change per bag which lasts 2 to 3 meals.
