Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Whether you are cutting back on meat and dairy products for health or moral reasons, it's good to remind ourselves that there are other forms of protein out there besides cheeseburgers, steak, and chicken satay. Check out these vegan sources. Tempeh: 4 ounces gives you 22g of protein Tofu: 1/2 cup serving equals 19.9g of protein. Seitan: If you eat 3 ounces, you'll have consumed 19g of protein. Plain soy milk: 1 cup of soymilk has 11g of protein. Edamame: You'll get 10g of protein by eating 1/2 a cup of these beans. Incorporating these foods into your meals will not only give you cholesterol and saturated fat free sources of protein, but since many of them contain fiber as well, they're even healthier. Fit's Tips: Not sure how much protein you should be getting in a day? Then check out this chart. Peter H Sent from Mail. A Smarter Inbox.
