Protein Diet Menus

Protein Diet Menus

A low-protein diet is used to treat people that suffer from kidney or liver disease or failure, as well as other symptoms of urea and the metabolism. Eat plenty of rice, vegetables and beans in place of high-protein foods such as meat and milk products. Choose the thinnest cuts of sandwich meats at your grocery store, and stick to lower-protein varieties of meat, like poultry. When choosing cheeses, pick out high-flavor varieties, such as extra sharp cheeses, and eat less of them.

Breakfast

    Make high-fiber cereal a part of your healthy, low-protein diet.

    Eat 3/4 cup of high-fiber, low-carbohydrate cereal, such as Cheerios or another whole-grain or oat cereal. In place of milk, use 1/2 cup of a non-dairy creamer in your cereal. Eat a half piece of fruit, such as a banana or cantaloupe, and 1/2 cup of fresh fruit juice.

Mid-Morning Snack

    Include two healthy snacks a day when you are dieting. This will keep you from experiencing hunger or fatigue, which could lead you to make unhealthy food choices or fall off of your diet. An example of a low-protein diet snack might be half of a Fruit Roll-Ups along with a glass of water or unsweetened herbal tea.

Lunch

    A turkey sandwich with mayonnaise is a good part of a healthy lunch.

    For lunch, make a sandwich of two slices of bread, a slice of turkey, lettuce, tomato and 3 tsp. of mayonnaise. As a side dish, prepare 1/2 cup of green beans, followed by an apple for dessert. Drink a 4 oz. glass of fruit punch or sweetened iced tea with your meal.

Afternoon Snack

    Eat an ice-pop, Popsicle or other frozen fruit or yogurt for an afternoon snack, followed by a glass of water.

Dinner

    Meat and vegetables with rice are a good choice for dinner.

    Eat a 2 oz. serving of lean meat with 1/2 cup of rice, 1/2 cup of broccoli or other green, leafy vegetables, a small salad with up to 2 tbsp. of ranch dressing and a 1/2 cup of citrus fruit for dessert. Drink unsweetened herbal tea, water or a glass of red wine with your dinner.

Late-Night Snack

    Jelly beans or gumdrops make a good late night snack.

    If you are hungry between dinner and bedtime, eat 1 oz. of candy. Good options are gumdrops, gummy bears, fruit candies, mints or Life Savers. Drink another glass of water before bed.
