Vegetarian Protein Tips

Combine plant proteins

Rice + beans, hummus + pita, or lentils + quinoa. Combining incomplete proteins creates a complete amino acid profile.

Eggs and dairy are protein gold

Greek yogurt (20g/cup), cottage cheese (25g/cup), and eggs (6g each) are the easiest ways to hit protein targets.

Tofu and tempeh are versatile

Firm tofu has 10g protein per 1/2 cup. Tempeh has 15g per 1/2 cup. Both absorb flavors and work in almost any dish.
