Plant-based dietitian Kara Black thinks creating a high-protein vegan diet is simpler than most people would expect. “Protein isn’t just in meat; plants can pack a punch too,” she notes.
Kara’s best high-protein vegan dishes are listed here:
One may make a lentil and quinoa salad.
Kara makes a tart lemon-tahini dressing combining cooked lentils, quinoa, cherry tomatoes, and spinach. She notes that this salad is filled with plant-based protein and ideal for meal prep.
2. Chickpea Scramble Kara says, “This is my vegan scrambled eggs.” Mash chickpeas with turmeric, nutritional yeast, and a sloshful of almond milk. For a substantial breakfast, toss it with your preferred vegetables.
Three: Peanut Butter Chia Pudding Kara combines chia seeds, almond milk, and a tablespoon of peanut butter for a sweet yet high in protein treat. “Let it sit overnight; you will wake up to a creamy, fantastic breakfast.”
Kara’s counsel to anyone considering a vegan diet: “Pay close attention to balance and variety. You won’t feel as though you’re missing anything with so many plant-based choices!
