A Protein-Packed {P28 Giveaway}

Posted: July 2, 2012

I hope you had a lovely and relaxing weekend leading up to this holiday week!  Welcome back to the next 3 MONTHS of Monday giveaways on the blog!  If you missed last week, Jennifer C won some Lemon Coconut awesomeness in the form of The Simply Bar.  This week I am excited to introduce to you a new line of high protein breads made by P28.  They are named that because each bagel, 2 slices of bread, and wrap have 28g of protein in them!!  This compares to the amount of protein in a chicken breast, or piece of salmon...but IN A BREAD.

See for yourself:

A few more highlights:

  • 100% Natural
  • 100% Whole Wheat - Made with Oat, Flax Seed, Sunflower Seed, and Millet
  • Made with 100% Whey Isolate - The highest quality source of protein
  • A rich source of 8 essential Amino Acids that your body needs for growth, energy, and vibrant health
  • Cholesterol Free
  • A Good source of Fiber
  • Contains Omega 3's
  • Excellent for people who are trying to build muscle and/or lose body fat.

This arrived at my doorstep (thank you P28!), and the tasting/creating began.

The Good, The Bad, and the Outta-this-World:

The bread is good.  It has a similar look/feel/taste to "normal" bread, but with a slight chewiness that takes some getting used to.  I decided after multiple sandwiches, a few pieces of toast, and a grilled cheese that I prefer the bread toasted.  And if it's not toasted, I cut the crust off like a picky toddler :)

You'll have to wait 'til tomorrow for the recipe for this Lemon Blackberry Grilled Cheese (I know...I'm such a tease!). But, it was perfect on 2 slices of P28 high-protein bread.

The bagels were bad.  At least the ones I received.  (Maybe I got a bad batch?!)  Sorry P28 peeps, just being honest...this blogger girl did not like them.  They were chewy and tough and dry. Not how I like to get my protein, or anything for that matter.  I tried to make another one this morning to see if I could improve my review/description. Nope.  They went in the trash.

But, they sure did make up for it with what I'm about to show you next.

The wraps are outta-this-world!!  This is a new product for them, which will be available for sale in about 2 weeks.  They sure did find a winner!! They are similar to a chalupa bread... just the right thickness, nice flavor, and soooooo versatile.  I had one with scrambled eggs, bacon, and cheese.  One with peanut butter and fresh strawberries (which happens to be one of my 7 low-sugar tips, in case you missed them). One pan-fried as a quesadilla.  And one with hummus, turkey, and red peppers.  YUM!!  This is a great (delicious) way to get in some extra protein!

They're fairly large, so after I rolled this one up, I cut off a bit of the excess to save a few extra calories.

So now for the giveaway!

I currently love getting my protein from powdered peanut butter, but sadly my favorite brand from Trader Joes's is no longer being made! What's a girl to do?!...Bread sounds like a good option :) great post!

I love getting incorporating protein shakes made with organic whey protein, bananas, and spinach. Such a nutritious and delicious packed "treat!"

Submitted by Jenny - July 2, 2012 - 9:10am

Eating a 6oz Chobani Greek Yogurt with 1/4 cup of Kashie Go Lean cereal mixed in. The cereal not only adds a nice crunch to the yogurt it also adds a little more protein as a full serving has 8g protein.

Submitted by Deb - July 2, 2012 - 9:11am

The wraps look aMAZing! My favorite protein source is fish. I grill extra and then have it for a morning snack.

Submitted by Mitch Obey - July 2, 2012 - 9:12am

My favorite source of protein is definitely mixing a scoop of whey into my oatmeal and topping with a batch of freshly mixed powdered peanut butter

Submitted by JoAnna - July 2, 2012 - 9:16am

My favorite way to get protein? It would have to be an omelette! My favorite is tomato, cheese and bacon. The tomatos get so soft and sweet and the bacon and cheese just compliment it so nicely! The best thing about this combination is that it is versatile. Turkey bacon and low-fat cheeses are nice lower calorie substitutes. But what would make this even better? Making it a P28 burrito!! Yum! I will be looking for P28 during my next grocery trip. Thanks for all the advice, Kelly! This morning, I channeled you and closely looked at the sugar content in my granola-shocking! I am going to share this on my FB page too :)

Submitted by Stephanie T - July 2, 2012 - 9:16am

I still love eggs for some protein. I'm pretty sure it's not the best source of protein but when I start the day with them it keeps me full.

Submitted by Gina @ Running to the Kitchen - July 2, 2012 - 9:17am

Fave way (albeit maybe not the healthiest) would be through nut butters! Your wrap up above with the strawberries is making me wonder why I've never combined berries with nut butters before like that. So simple but so delicious!

I often get my protien by eating egg whites each morning along with Greek yogurt but one of my favorites is having a protein shake with whey powder from a company called Isagenix. It is SO good and tastes like I'm having a chocolate milkshake after my morning work out. Love it! These breads (P28) sound really interesting and my tastebuds are intrigued by the wraps for sure!

Submitted by Ashleigh V. - July 2, 2012 - 10:19am

I love getting protein through whole grains, fat free/low fat dairy products (love Greek yogurt!), and vegetarian protein powder mixes. These wraps and breads sound delish!

Submitted by Corrie Anne - July 2, 2012 - 10:21am

Eggs are my fave. And hummus. But who wouldn't want protein in BREAD. That's pretty awesome.

Submitted by Divya - July 2, 2012 - 10:24am

I currently get my protein through lean meats or cottage cheese!

Submitted by cheryl kesner - July 2, 2012 - 10:40am

My favorite way to get protein is using egg whites. They are so versatile you can do virtually anything with them!!!

Chicken is my go-to for protein! Packed with a large amount of protein, you can add it to almost anything and is so easy to bring with you on the road, whether in containers or ziploc bags! P28 reminds me of "flatout" bread, and I hope I can try it as a chicken & hummus wrap :)

Submitted by Samantha - July 2, 2012 - 1:16pm

I get my protein in with lean meats and sometimes a smoothie! I am way slacking in the protein department though!! This will help :)

PB2 mixed into greek yogurt. Also, roasted veggie egg white omelets. So good! I'm curious about this bread- would be a great way to sneak more protein into the kiddos.

Protein toast along side my plain greek yogurt in the morning would make for a protein pack breakfast and a great way to start my day!

Submitted by Alissa - July 2, 2012 - 2:39pm

I love snacking on things throughout the day, so instead of making an entire meal when I'm not that hungry, I just keep a bowl of boiled soybeans (edamame) in the fridge ready to grab a handful at any time! I also like Fage greek yogurt because you can add as much sweet, sugary, fruity stuff as you want.

Submitted by Georgiana - July 2, 2012 - 3:09pm

My go-to source for protein is plain Greek yogurt which is jammed packed with protein goodness! Thanks so much!
