Vegan protein: making recipes to stay full!
One important part to eating vegan recipes is this: make sure you get enough plant based protein to stay satiated and full! Protein from legumes, nuts, seeds, and soy is important for balancing a diet that has no meat or dairy. And it will keep you full for hours! All of the recipes above focus on making sure there is a good amount of vegan protein. Here are the best sources of vegan protein in your diet: Also try: 10 Easy Vegan Bowls Also try: Crispy Tofu Also try: Acai Smoothie
Legumes: Lentils, Beans, Chickpeas, and Peas Whole Grains: Rice, Quinoa, Barley, Farro, Bulgur Wheat, and Millet (see How to Cook Whole Grains) Nuts & Seeds: Almonds, Cashews, Peanuts, Walnuts, Pecans, Hazelnuts, Pistachios, Pepitas (Pumpkin Seeds), Sesame Seeds, Sunflower Seeds Soy: Tofu, Tempeh. (Stick to 2 to 4 servings per week) Veggies: Some vegetables have protein, but in much lower amounts than the foods above. Some higher protein veggies are Corn, Broccoli, Asparagus, Brussels Sprouts, and Artichokes.
