protein

Hi, I'm trying to increase my protein intake. However I'm vegetarian and trying to keep a check on my dairy consumption. Other than eggs and nuts, what are other good sources of protein I can incorporate into my diet? Thank you!

Hi E, thanks for your question. Other good plant protein sources are beans, lentils, peas, chickpeas, seeds and you could have small amounts of spirulina and chlorella in juices and smoothies. You'll also get good amounts of protein from brown rice, quinoa and millet. Hope this helps!
