Q: I’ve been thinking about switching to a vegetarian diet, but I’m a little concerned that I won’t be consuming enough protein. What are some protein-rich, vegetarian friendly foods?
A: You still have plenty of options: Cheese, yogurt, eggs, and milk are just a few. If you plan on going vegan, meaning you won’t intake any animal products whether it be meat, fish, dairy or eggs, you still have options such as nuts, seeds, beans and lentils amongst others. You may also want to look into protein supplements such as hemp protein powder.
