When we think of high protein foods, we are usually imagining a big juicy steak, poultry, fish and dairy products like cheese or Greek yogurt. The more woke among us might conjure up beans or nuts. Probably the last thing you would think of, if you thought of them at all, were fruits.
Fruits are certainly not protein powerhouses but some fruits have a good deal of protein content and if you are watching every gram they can certainly make a contribution to your daily intake. And it comes with the added benefit of fruit’s more abundant components like fiber, vitamins and antioxidants.
Which fruits contain the most protein? Apricots, blackberries, avocados and citrus fruits - especially oranges and grapefruits - all make the top ten. Want the whole list? Its right here.
