    10 High Protein Foods for Dessert You Must Eat

    Eating is always a problem if you are working out. Some professional bodybuilders even go that far and say that eating is 70% of the workout, and they are kind of right. I say “kind of” because the workout itself is pretty important, however, eating the food that your body needs is the fuel your body uses for growth.

    So, eating is something that can make things easier for your progress but it can make things pretty difficult for your budget. Delicious food, especially healthy one full with proteins, is pretty expensive. Besides from the cost, it is a challenge to eat healthy.

    Basically, you have to change your life. You have to plan your meals, calculate proteins, calories, put some money on the side because of it and maintain that throughout the whole year, and then the next one, and then the year that comes after, all until you get what you want.

    Here are 10 tasty recipes:
