Why
- 5 g protein per 100 kcal (moderate; chicken breast is about 22, plain rice about 2).
- 48 kcal a serving is 2% of a 2,800 kcal bulking day, and 2 g is 1% of 140 g protein.
- Fat gives 45% of its calories, mostly from the cooking fat, so the recipe matters more than the dish.
The portion to aim for
Even 2 glasses gives 5 g protein (96 kcal), so build the meal around another protein food.
| Portion | kcal | Protein |
|---|---|---|
| 1 glass | 48 | 2 g |
| 2 glasses | 96 | 5 g |
