High Protein Recipes

There’s a common misconception that plant-based meals are low in protein, but it’s actually easy to meet your daily recommended intake from a variety of sources! Soy, legumes, nuts, seeds, fortified milk alternatives, and other staples are high in plant-based protein. With a healthy and balanced plant-based diet, getting enough will be effortless.
