Non-dairy, non-nut, non-bean protein?

Hi all! I'm looking for high-protein foods that would work for someone who is lactose-intolerant, and allergic to nuts and beans. Any recommendations for grains, veggies, soy products, protein bars, even powders would be helpful; I've googled my fingers off but I know y'all are a great resource! So, any delicious and proteinlicious thing to try? Thanks!

hi there, i use reflex vegan protein powder, its pea protein and is the best one iv tried by far! x0

the paleo diet might work in this case as it eliminates dairy, wheat and legumes. Although no need to not eat wheat if you're not actually allergic/intolerant to it. In that case it would be the paleo diet + wheat.0

Kale is an option. Around 3g per cup, so an awesome excuse to eat it all the time to get a good amount in for the day!0

Learn how to make seitan. There are hundreds of recipes online. My preferred method is baking in a bread pan with broth poured over to keep it moist. I like adding ginger, garlic, braggs, nutritional yeast and sage. It's good barbequed after too.
Also hemp seeds and protein powders, kale and brocolli coleslaw ( can you eat seeds?). I like pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds and dried cranberries in my salads these days.
Go to trader joes or just your local grocery store, and try different soy products .
Do you eat fish or meat?0 -

if someone can't eat beans or nuts then pea protein probably isn't a good idea as they're closely related to beans and some kinds of nuts.
My daughter's allergic to chickpeas and lentils and her doctor advised us not to give her nuts either, due to the fact they're all related and nut allergy can be particularly dangerous.0 -
OP are you vegan or vegetarian? Your profile and post don't say this, but everyone seems to be recommending vegan proteins... not sure why they're assuming that. Did I miss something?
Meat, fish and eggs would be non-dairy, non-nut and non-bean foods that are high in protein. (unless by "dairy" you include eggs, which some people do, but there's no lactose in eggs and the proteins are very different to milk proteins)0 -
Meat, eggs, fish, poultry. Yum0

Meat and eggs. A crustless quiche is a full meal and delicious.0

I've this on order. I wanted a soy/whey free product and this came recommended from my trainer. It's sun warrior rice protein. Not tried it yet, but he swears by it.

I get most of my protein from fish/meat/etc... but this is to be my backup.

You do know Soya is a bean? Have you actually been diagnosed with this allergy? If not I suggest you get tested because if your having problems there is a chance it's not what you think it is. There are many soya, hemp and pea protiens out on the market. i personally use Pulsin if it's available where you liveHi all!

Go for a Whey Isolate protein, that is pure whey - where the lactose is removed. The fastest and most easily absorbed protein for your body..0

You guessed it. Plus I'm a Pescatarian lactose intolerant who doesn't eat meat - only fish, so I use Whey isolate and eat a lot of eggs, etc.0 -
Meat?
Either that or starve0 -

I dunno... I love that movie pretty hard! Daaaaaaay-O!!!!! Gotta go watch that scene now!Thanks, everybody. Now you've got me wanting to go face first into a big bucket of shrimp.

I was actually envisioning just plain shrimp, but sure, why not? Or maybe even fried shrimp, so that I get protein, fat and carbs all in one go!'scuse me ma'am.... you 've got some marinara on your face...
no there.....
no no no... more like All over there.

I'm kind of envisioning youre face looking a bit like someone took a headshot in front of you and you have- shrimp and marinera EVERYWHERE on you.
but I mean- plain shrimp could work I guess... if you aren't about head shots.

I currently use Garden of Life brand Rice Protein Powder and include it in my breakfast shake and in recipes too. 17G of protein per scoop.
It is dairy, lactose, soy (bean), and so many other things Free as well.
Good luck!0 -

in addition to the other suggestions - there are many gluten free products made with wild rice as well0 -
Thanks all! It's actually for my mom -- she is thin and exercises regularly, so her weight is okay, but she doesn't get much protein and can get fatigued sometimes. I keep up with my protein requirements with a lot of dairy and nuts but she's intolerant and/or allergic.
She eats small amounts of lean meat and eggs, but prefers to eat sorta-vegetarian with lots of plants and grains; she has IBS (which is vague, I know) and anything like legumes or milk really messes up her GI tract. Soy seems to be okay, so go figure!
The protein powder ideas are great, and any protein bars that *don't* have nuts would be wonderful. Any recommendations for how to sneak eggs into more foods? Like I said I've been looking a lot of this up but thought I'd ping y'all too.

Kale is an option. Around 3g per cup, so an awesome excuse to eat it all the time to get a good amount in for the day!
Only 30ish cups of kale needed! Woot! You got this!0 -

Haha, I'm not saying she'll have to eat 8 million bunches a day. But a few cups added into a salad and maybe kale chips can help add a little extra protein in each day.0
