Meals are very easy. All you do is take a bigger serving of protein. There's no trick to this.
For snacks, you want to make sure you have a whey protein post-workout shake to get to your muscles (you have a 1 hour window after a workout to best feed your muscles, whey digests in about 30 minutes). Any is fine, but I personally prefer Ultimate Nutrition's Iso Sensation. It is all isolate, 30g per scoop, and tastes great.
Pure Protein is a brand that makes fabulous tasting protein bars (s'mores is the best flavor, imo) that also have reduced fats and sugars. Think Thin makes a delicious protein bar. You can find this brand at Wal-Mart of all places.
If you have time to make a snack, do so. Like meals, all you have to do is up the protein. If you're going to have a tuna sandwich, make it with whole grain bread, mustard instead of mayo, and double the tuna. Health Question & Answer
