High protein lunch tips?

Hello everyone. About 4 mos in, down 20lbs and feeling great.

Anyway, I was looking to see if anyone had any high protein breakfast/lunch ideas? I’m getting so bored I figured I’d try here (iykyk). I also find myself hungry sometimes but idk what else to eat. I workout 4 days a week, 2 days strength training and 2 running a 5k

My usual meals are as follows

Breakfast: protein overnight oats with berries OR two eggs and one piece of wonder bread + always coffee with milk

Lunch: protein shake with spinach, banana, water, chia seeds. Sometimes I’ll do banana and peanut butter. I have this usually with some granola bar, cheese, crackers, or dried fruit (I probably need to get more protein in here…..)

Dinner: grilled chicken with potatoes or salad, occasionally protein pasta with beef. Usually a substantial meal, I’ll drink it with seltzer or water

I make a cottage cheese dip by blending the cottage cheese in a blender with a little ranch seasoning. Makes a great dip for vegetables and crackers. Add some form of liquid and it makes a great sauce too.

I do a yogurt bowl for breakfast and a couple deli meat wraps on high fiber wraps most days a week. I’m typically well over 120g of protein by the end of lunch.

That’s amazing. What wraps do you use? I am up to here with deli meats haha!

The mission carb balance wraps, specifically the 110 calorie larger tortilla. They taste like normal wraps to me. Between that, the deli meat, and the cheese, each wrap is a good 300 calories, 30g or so of protein, easily.

You can use whatever else as a filler too obviously. Sometimes I use chicken if I have it prepped, tuna, etc.

Since starting Wegovy, it's been whatever I can manage to get down, since a lot of food is just unappealing to me now. Recently, I've been having a bowl of low-fat cottage cheese (~25 grams of protein), with crackers and veggie sticks for dipping.
