I don't know if there are any THAT high unless it's extracted protein powders, but, TVP is 80 percent (Textured Vegetable Protein), Seitan (from vital wheat gluten) is about 57% - I don't know what meats run, I'm a vegetarian, but, those are about your highest protein vegetable sources. Beans usually have around 57 percent as well, but some processes of cooking canned beans lowers them in comparison to whatever else is in them - so, dried beans are better for you in that way. If you can still find any of the discontinued versions of low carb pastas, they have around fifty percent of either soy or wheat based proteins. Dreamfields is the only one I know still being produced and it is NOT that high. Those are your best sources that I can give - TVP the highest. But, to figure it out yourself, a gram of protein has 4 calories, multiply the grams per serving by 4, and divide it by the calories per serving for the percent.

Egg whites - 7grams of protein. Easy to digest. Simply separate the egg and whip up an egg white omelette. Add some salsa and lowfat cheese. Yum! Also fish, tuna, salmon, white meat chicken, lean pork, cottage cheese.
