One of the biggest challenges of going vegan is ensuring you still get all the protein you need, since you're no longer eating meat and dairy. Here is a list of high-protein vegan foods. I used it to plan my meals and organize my grocery shopping - if you only have vegan foods on hand then it's much easier to stick to! Of course there are many other foods that are vegan, but if you focus on the highest-protein options you'll be able to get all your nutrients in less calories.
Top High Protein Foods- Nuts (peanut butter, trail mix)
- Beans (all of them, especially soy and lentils, hummus, black bean soup, edamame, rice and beans)
- Whole Grains (quinoa, brown rice, oatmeal)
- Soy Products (soymilk, tofu, soy beans, soy yogurt, tofu in stir fry, tofu smoothies)
- Meat Substitutes (veggie burgers, veggie dogs, veggie crumbles)
- Veggies (broccoli, kale, spinach, squash, pumpkin)
