Veganism, Protein, and Treats - Oh My!
My dad and doctor are protein obsessed. They think by me being vegan I am not going to get enough protein. If you really look at how protein is distributed in food - it’s really hard not to get enough protein. But, if you are a vegan and really worried about getting enough protein. I’d like to share what I found.
NutriBiotic Rice Protein - I prefer the chocolate but it really doesn’t taste like much. It goes good in a glass of rice milk and has 12 grams of protein per serving - I usually put two heaping tablespoons in one glass for 24 grams of protein goodness at breakfast time.
NuGo Protein Bars - I like the chocolate chocolate chip the best. They are vegan and pretty good. 10g of Protein per bar.
Primal Strips - I like the Texas BBQ ones. For some reasons the Teriyaki tastes like dirt to me. The Hickory Smoke is okay but is more soy-like than the Texas BBQ. The only drawback on the Primal Strips is that the package is hard to open so you’ll probably need scissors and it has a lot of sodium. But, it’s 10 grams of protein a strip and that’s awesome.
Tofurkey Jerky - It’s awesome. It has 12 grams of protein per ounce but again high salt content.
Okay, this has nothing to do with protein, well, they have like 3 grams of protein per ounce but I want to share this finding with you. Gone Nuts! Living Intentions are awesome raw nuts. I found them at this little vegan store. A little costly but they are really good. I haven’t tried all the flavors but so far my favorite is Maple. The Teriyaki are pretty awesome too. Well, I like them, my dad doesn’t.
Another thing that has nothing to do with protein but sugar - Yummy Earth is some awesome lollipops. I only have tried the Pomegranate drops and they’re great.
That’s all I have to share for now. Do you have any vegan protein or yummy finds? Leave a Form Spring message about it! Thanks! :)
