I'll have to look for this one - it looks yummy! Thanks for the suggestion! :) I've never had almond milk but will have to try it one of these days.

I couldn't find the Koch so I got Barber Foods from Publix Supermarket.  Walmart and Kroger only have the breaded ones.

Campbell's Tuscan White Bean and Chicken soup 

Manischewitz soups - these are dry ingredients to add to water - I like the Minestrone, to which I've added chicken and green beans

Frigo low fat string cheese

PB2 - powdered peanut butter

Canned tuna

Eggs - be careful here.  I like to poach them, or lightly scramble.  If you overcook them they can be hard to eat for some people.

Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt

Non-fat milk (I really like Vanilla Almond Milk better, but it only has 1 gram of protein)

Non-fat cottage cheese

Cottage cheese (current favourite breakfast)
Plain Greek yoghurt
2x protein yoghurt cups (50 calories, 8 grams protein)
Home cooked cooked pinto beans (crockpot overnight, salt to taste)
Premier shakes
Syntrax vanilla, chocolate and cappuccino (I have others, but use those the most)
Dry milk powder
Unsweetened almond milk (cuts the sweetness of the shake powders)
Wide variety of kcups for my Keurig
Herb tea
String cheese
Deli cold cuts (tastier than the blister pack ones)
Berries
Frozen veg
Hi Lo cereal
Oatmeal
Canned pumpkin (for pumpkin custard)
Eggs
Ground turkey
Boneless, skinless chicken breast
Salmon
Canned tuna
Hummus
Baby carrots, snap peas, cauliflower, celery, peppers (snacks)
Peanut flour (PB2 without the added sugar and salt)
High protein flax bread (kept in the freezer, since I only eat 1-2 slices a week)
Flax meal (we prefer the roasted kind from Costco)
Peanut butter
Cashew butter
Almond butter
Butter

The last few things are because I need to increase my fat intake a little. I'd have avocados as well if I knew how to tell when they're ripe.
