If you are interested in a protein powder, there is Heartland brown rice protein. There is no added anything if you get the plain. The vanilla has some flavoring and stevia though. Warning! It is super grainy compared to whey. You get used to it after time though.

I have a legume allergy so no beans, lentils, peas, soy, peanuts for me. And I tested positive for a dairy allergy at one point, though I am eating it now with no recognizable problems.

(Edited) I used the Nutribiotic vanilla brown rice protein for a long time. It tasted good in protein balls (sunflower seed butter, dates, nuts or cereals, cocoa powder) and I would add it to things like pancakes, muffins, etc. (though you have to add a little more liquid and/or reduce the amount of dry ingredients). Otherwise, if I made it in a shake I had to add a banana and berries and had to drink it fairly quickly; it definitely has a grainy texture compared to whey.

I'm in Canada and it costs about $75 for 1 kg up here, but I could buy the exact same tub at Super Supplements online in the States for $25 or less (this was over a year ago though). I would order and pick up a stockpile since it has a long expiry date. My vegan son drank it mixed with hot water and a little cocoa. This is a great supplement, but I would still recommend you try to eat a little meat as the rice protein is an incomplete protein (does not contain all the essential amino acids). My doctor told me it's not advisable to be vegetarian if you can't eat legumes or dairy.

And quinoa and chia seeds have some protein, as do all seeds and nuts.

Not sure if you are still using the brown rice protein at all, but you can buy 3kg of the heartland brand on bodyenergyclub.com for $75+tax, free shipping with no minimums. They are based out of BC, so depending where you live, they may have a location closer to you to buy in store. I am not sure if the price is the same in store however.

Thanks a lot - I'd never heard of that site. I was using the Heartland at first, but I couldn't find it anywhere after a while.

You are very welcome. They have a points program too. It equals to about $25 off every 3-4 containers I buy. Its not bad really. I live in Ontario and I get it in about a week. You would get it much quicker.
