Protein

Since I have gotten distracted from posting, I thought I would write a few posts about protein. I have been a vegetarian for the past 8 months so protein levels are something that is concern to me. Some days I seem to make my target effortlessly, and other days it is a struggle. So I thought I would research a few different protein rich foods and report back about them. Some of the foods that interest me are:

• Lentils
• Quinoa
• Beets
• Almonds
• Hemp Seeds
• Black Beans
• Tempeh

I plan to learn more about them and incorporate them more into my meal plan over the next month. I have been thinking about tweaking my menus for a while and I think this is a good way to go about it.

Stay tuned for more on this subject!
