Overview

Fill up and fuel up the plant-based way with this guide to vegan protein featuring over 100 easy, delicious recipes.

“How do you get your protein?” As a vegan, you’re sure to get asked this question often. Most likely, you’ve even thought about it yourself. Vegan protein comes from things like tofu, tempeh, beans, nuts, and protein-rich whole grains like quinoa. There are many options out there, but how to prepare them? What to put them in? These are questions that can feel daunting, especially if you haven’t used these ingredients before.

Never fear, Celine Steen and Tamasin Noyes to the rescue! The Great Vegan Protein Booktakes you step-by-step through each protein-rich vegan food group, providing you with valuable information on how to prepare the ingredient along with lots of yummy and satisfying recipes (many of them low-fat, soy free, and gluten-free!), including:
 

• Quinoa Crunch Blueberry Muffins
• Apple Pie Breakfast Farro
• Veggie Sausage Frittata
• Mean Bean Minestrone
• Split Pea Patties
• Spicy Chickpea Fries
• BBQ Lentils
• Tofu Fried Rice
• Seitan Saag
• Tempeh Tortilla Pizzas
• Do the Cocoa Shake
• Sesame Berry Squares

Each recipe uses whole food ingredients that can be easily found at most grocery stores or farmer’s markets—no hard-to-find ingredients or things you can’t pronounce.

Put the protein problem to rest and enjoy delicious meals with The Great Vegan Protein Book.
