We talk a lot about protein here at Healthy Dining, especially lean protein. Not only is it just a smart choice as part of a healthy diet, but it can also be an ally for weight loss. Whether it’s eggs with veggies for breakfast, a chicken sandwich for lunch, or halibut and greens over grains for dinner, protein can help satisfy hunger, boost energy expenditure and more.
