    I am vegetarian and had the same issues before. You need to add beans, quinoa, sunflower or pepita seeds or nuts to your salad.

    Maybe in the morning have a slice of sprouted grain bread and almond butter
    Protein shakes with hemp or almond milk (unsweetened if you want to keep the sugar low)

    For Example: I love making a southwest salad and adding cilantro, corn, and black beans
    Or you can make an Indian salad and add curried garbanzos
    I love salad I try to have one each day, the great thing about them is you can make them so different everytime :happy:

    I hope this helps :flowerforyou:

    definitely concur with the bean people. Besides, their dirt cheap if you buy canned or dried!
    Also, Hemp milk is high in protein. Along with hemp seeds and flax seeds.
