Any one know waht foods are high in protein. Also some foods you can make that are high in protien recipies?

Question

Food you can make, recipies good diets

Answer 1

soya beans have protien, I have to eat lots of soya, since I'm vegetarian and can't get protein from meat.

If you're going on a high protein diet eat:

meat

eggs

milk (and other dairy products)

nuts

legumes (green beans, and any other type of beans)

the thing is when you're eating things like meat, and if you're for example eating a steak, then you're not just getting protein, you're getting loads of FAT and most of it is NOT not the good kind of fat, but saturated fat.

Fish, beans, nuts, wholegains and vegatable protein, can give you the same amount of protein, without all that saturated ICKY fat.

Hoped this helped :)

(I added some sites on the sources that you can go to and read)

depends are you vegan or vegetarian, i would say beans seriously do have alot of protein, like bean burrittos.
