    Protein water, there are several on Amazon, in powder mix and liquid form.

    I use Isopure unflavored powder:

    90 cals per scoop,

    20 grams (whey)protein,

    2 grams carb

    Sweetened with  stevia.

    I add scoop to a 36 oz. pitcher of iced green tea that I sip on thru out the afternoon. 

    (I add the powder to one cup of the tea, mix it in a shaker,then add it to the pitcher and stir the tea in the pitcher each time I pour a fresh glass. Found it mixes best  in a martini shaker with a couple of Nutribomb Thunderballs as the shaker "agitators" , can get them on Amazon also.)

    For a grab and go option I use READY protein water 16.9 fluid oz:

    70 cals,

    15 grams (whey) protein,

    1 gram carb,

    No sweetener.

     Protein Intake

    How much protein are you consuming daily?  

    What is your fat, carbohydrate and calorie intake, as well?

    Foods

    As has been mentioned, consuming a protein powder mix,  is one of the easiest way to increase you protein intake. 

    Food like eggs that was posted is a good, quality source.

    Cheese is a a great, high quality protein.  

    These food will get there if you consume enough of them.
