Having a hard time eating enough protein, especially for cheap. For example my meal today.

Scoop of whey with milk- 40g Protein and $1.50
4 Eggs- 30g protein $.40
1/2 lb Ground Turkey with cheese and vegetables on top and a tortilla- ~60g protein $2.50
Granola Bar- 10g Protein $.40
~12 oz Cottage Cheese- ~33-40g Protein $1.00

Totals: 173-180g Protein for $5.80 per day.
I fail to reach my requirement of 200g protein, and a months worth of food would cost $174. The money is approximate, so I assume its a little bit more and to reach the 200g protein I would say $200. I was used to eating 2 potatoes and some beef/night before I started working out. Was like $100 a month.
