Budget High-Protein Meal

Eggs and canned tuna are the most cost-effective sources of complete protein available in most supermarkets, typically costing under $1 combined per serving. White bread provides fast carbohydrates that pair well with the protein for a post-training window or quick lunch. The combination delivers approximately 45–50g of protein at a fraction of the cost of chicken breast or salmon.
