Sounds hard, so let us break it down.
Personally, being a carnivore, I love mixing and matching protein sources to get to my 50 grams. Example: Steak with some slices of cheese or an egg. Bam, ya done.
Chicken
Chicken meat, cooked (4 ounces): 35 grams protein
Turkey breast, roasted (4 ounces): 34 grams protein

Grilled chicken breast (3 to 4 ounces): 30 grams protein

Hamburger patty (4 ounces or 1/4 pound): 28 grams protein
Steak (6 ounces): 42 grams protein
Pork
Pork chop (average size): 22 grams of protein
Pork loin or tenderloin (4 ounces): 29 grams protein
Ham (3 ounces): 19 grams protein
Canadian-style bacon (1 slice): 5 to 6 grams protein
Bacon (7 slices): 30 grams of protein
Cheese

Notes:
Don’t eat "breakfast foods" for breakfast. Almost ALL Breakfast foods are complete garbage. Make extra food at dinner for breakfast in the morning.
