A common theme right now is the "30 gram cheat sheet" as ...
30 grams of protein cheat sheet:- 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 cup tempeh
- 5 oz shrimp (about 10 large shrimp)
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 4 oz chicken (about half of a chicken breast)
- 5 oz grass-fed steak (slightly larger than a deck of cards)
- 1 1/2 cups tofu
- 2 cups black beans
- 5 oz wild-caught salmon (about one fillet)
- 5 eggs

Leucine is an essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in stimulating muscle protein synthesis.
- 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt: Yes, Greek yogurt typically contains around 2.5-3 grams of leucine per serving.
- 1 cup tempeh: Yes, tempeh usually contains around 2.5-3 grams of leucine per cup.
- 5 oz shrimp: Yes, shrimp contains around 2.5-3 grams of leucine per 5 oz serving.
- 1 cup cottage cheese: Yes, cottage cheese generally contains around 2.5-3 grams of leucine per cup.
- 4 oz chicken: Yes, chicken breast usually contains around 2.5-3 grams of leucine per 4 oz serving.
