Hrm: Peanuts are what, 5 grams of protein to the ounce? I dunno what
you had ounce wise and don't want to back it out (leaving in 20
minutes) + 54 grams from the chicken (assuming two serves is two
serves). 9 oz of strawberries has maybe 5 grams of protein. No, I
wouldn't suggest it was high protein. Wouldn't pass my daily minimum
of 120 grams. Maybe the fat+protein, but still, I think you can eat
more than that.
PS- Eat breakfast. It's good for you in a lot of ways.
