easily subbed for meat in many meals. Recent shifts to plant-based protein rate this as one of

the best sources of plant-based protein according to Arizton's a recent plant-based protein

market report. Studies show that soy may help prevent chronic diseases like cancer, heart

disease, and diabetes. It’s also perfectly safe for kids

3. Sprouted Whole Grain Bread: Whole grain bread has about 6 grams of protein per slice. That

means one sandwich is packing about a fourth of your daily needs before we even get to the

filling! Whole grains are also an excellent source of fiber, which helps to maintain a healthy

digestive system and prevent chronic diseases like cancer and cardiovascular disease.

4. Quinoa: Quinoa is what some people would call a “complete protein”. All whole plant foods

contain all 9 essential amino acids, some just have lower amounts than others. Still, quinoa, like

tofu, has a large amount of all of the essential amino acids and 8 grams of protein per cup,

making it a really great plant-based protein option.

5. Oats: Like bread, most people think only of carbohydrates when they think of oats. But whole

rolled oats pack about 11 grams of protein per cup.

6. Broccoli: This vegetable is cruci-ferocious. That’s because one cup of cooked broccoli has almost

4 grams of protein. That’s quite a bit for a veggie. In fact, broccoli actually has more protein than

some types of beef. While you’d have to eat a ton of broccoli to equal the amount in a steak,

most plant-based eaters would be up for that challenge.

7. Lentils:While all beans pack a ton of plant protein, lentils top the list with about 18 grams of

protein per cup.

8. Nutritional Yeast: These nutty yellow flakes are a plant-based eater essential. Two tablespoons

contain about 8 grams of protein, an ample dose of iron, and a plethora of B vitamins.

9. Peanut Butter Powder: While peanut butter is a great source of healthy fat, peanut butter

powder gives you more protein per calorie so it’s a great way to boost the plant protein content

of meals.

10. Hemp Seeds: Hemp seeds get about 6 and a 1/2 grams of protein per two tablespoons and are

so easy to toss into salads, smoothies, and bowls to add a punch of plant-based protein.
