Why
- 3.8 g protein per 100 kcal (low; chicken breast is about 22, plain rice about 2).
- 214 kcal a serving is 8% of a 2,800 kcal bulking day, and 8 g is 6% of 140 g protein.
- Fat gives 46% of its calories, mostly from the cooking fat, so the recipe matters more than the dish.
The portion to aim for
Even ½ glass gives 4 g protein (107 kcal), so build the meal around another protein food.
| Portion | kcal | Protein |
|---|---|---|
| 1 glass | 214 | 8 g |
| ½ glass | 107 | 4 g |
