Beans, lentils, nuts, seeds, leafy green vegetables, whole grains, soy products, the list goes on... You don't need fake meat alternatives or protein shakes! Just eat real food!

There is plenty of protein in a plant-based diet. There is no need to supplement with powders. We have been told by the Dairy and Beef industries that the more protein we eat, the better. Too much protein causes cancer.

Greek yogurt is high in protein. Just watch out and look for one that's not loaded with sugar.

If you're looking for protein sources outside of animal-based products, the best thing for you to do is get a recipe to create your own seitan, as well as a recipe to make your own protein powder. They are easy to do and you can control what goes in.
