Best protein foods/snacks

Question

Hi all! Second time mom currently 27 weeks with baby girl number 2. With my first, I was always nauseous and meat or protein made me sick so I didn’t eat a lot of it. I only ended up gaining around 20 lbs the entire pregnancy. This time around I am constantly starving and craving protein like chicken, meat, eggs, etc. I have already gained 17 lbs. What are some of the best high protein meals or snacks you’ve had that will fill you up and keep you full for longer? Currently snacking on yogurt, high protein granola, trying to up my protein intake but I’m still hungry again shortly after I eat and I don’t want to fill up on junk. Husband is allergic to peanuts/tree nuts so we don’t keep nuts or nut butters in the house.
