Vegan Protein without Soy or Whey

Broccoli has more protein than chicken! I was a vegan for 21 days .... then our gourmet grocery had a steak sandwich cookout! (hanging my head now)
I cannot lie and I am both a carni and omnivore!
I am very proud of anyone who can follow a vegan diet. We are meatless 3 - 4 days a week.
Mushrooms also have lots of protein. There is a great cookbook called " Veggie burgers every which way". I highly suggest the library - preview the cookbooks before you invest.
Hang in there, I know that feeling good will help with the change. I know, I had to really limit salt intake. Hubby had to go G free. We feel so much better! You will too!0 -
I've tried Vega Protiens, Sunwarrior and Plantfusion and Plantfusion is my favourite.
Sunwarrior is too sweet, i think they use a lot of stevia which I don't really like the tatse of. Vega is great but I only like the Vega One Energising Smoothie in Vanilla and the All in one Nutrition shake in Chocolate.
The Plantfusion ones have a better type of sweetness to them for my taste buds.
I have tried brown rice protein and is is so chalky and disgusting. :-P0 -
I've been using Sequel's Vega line - the Sport, One and energizing smoothie powders - with good results. I am not vegan but seem to have trouble absorbing necessary nutrients even if eating clean. I've felt much better, have lost fat, and am more alert and energetic. Best wishes for your continuing journey back to wellness.0
