protein bargain - 5th street grill italian turkey sausage from costco

100 calories, 15 grams of Protein and only 1G of carbs. I get them at costco and my whole family loves them. They might be too much/too big for an early sleever, but for me in maintenance, it is a mainstay Breakfast item. a much better protein "bargain" than many other choices.

My rule of thumb is that I want 10G protein per 100 calories at a mimimum, for a food to count as a good protein source.

Italian sausage - I am thinking lunch..does it have a breakfast-y taste? I will look for it next time I go to Costco... thanks.

I love these and so does the family. I make them with peppers and onions.

Well, since being sleeved my idea of what constitutues meals has changed...lol

I love eggs for breakfast, but they are a little light on the Protein actually. Sometimes I have an egg and a sausage... yummy. i have also diced them and used them inside dishes but mostly I have one for breakfast.

It is not super italian tasting. It is mild. I am not a huge sausage lover, but these are good.

A typical lunch is sandwich meat, thin sliced cheese and lettuce... kind of a lettuce wrap sandwich. I treat myself with a little cream cheese or maybe a sweet mustard as the condiment.

Going to Costco today - are these in the frozen section or the refrigerator section? Thanks!

section between the cheese and meats

Went to Costco today. Couldn't find them. Frisco Texas Costco. :-(

They don't have them at Maryland Costco either.

Bummer! Read labels - maybe there is another type that is low carb and high protein!

My son loves them too and it is good for him too.

I just bought, but haven't tried a new one AmyLu fully cooked Sugarhouse Maple breakfast chicken sausage. These are smaller links - but still decent sized! 3 links are 90 calories, 12g Protein,2 g of carbs - another protein bargain!

I live near the home of costco - Kirkland - so maybe we have different products here but the selection in the prepared meats section is awesome.

Another favorite is the ham. They are now selling their black forest ham as thick sliced sandwich meat. I take a hunk, wrap it with a partial piece of cheese, toss in a little cream cheese and wrap it all in a piece of lettuce and call it a sandwich. yummy lunch

I have them and they are great with a fried egg.

Jennie-O is also really good. It's only like 90 cals for 3 links, no carbs, and 17 Protein. They have an entire line of Turkey products.
