Answer 2

You may be interested in Seitan. It's wheat gluten, and has lots of protein. You've probably already had wheat gluten in the foods you eat. It's been a vegan food for a number of centuries too. (So I'm told.) There are many recipies on line, and you can even buy it ready made in some places. I've put a few of my favorite links in the sources.

PS: There is also something called "Bragg liquid aminos". I don't know much about it, but a link to that is also included.

Answer 3

I think that this question was answered sufficiently.
However, I just wanted to address Elvis p directly above me. You are the type to give vegans and veganism a bad name. You are the holier than thou type that makes people spiteful rather than understanding. Here is someone that never claimed to be a long time vegan looking for help and you bashed them. You my friend are no true vegan. In fact you are the worst type of vegan there is. You are a vegan because you think it is about being cool. You somehow derive self satisfaction by belonging to a group and by thinking you are better than everyone else. Even people that belong to the same group. If you were a vegan for the right reasons you would welcome people that are new to this because it only strengthens your cause! You obviously have no cause other than stumbling through yet another identity crisis. And I can only imagine the number of omnivores you have alienated. Do us all a favor and keep your self absorbed opinions to yourself!

Answer 4

Legumes (beans and peas, soy, peanuts).

I never bothered with "protein supplements." I was always suspicious that they were made from animal products. I don't see why they are necessary unless someone has some kind of illness or something. I'd rather eat food.

Answer 5

Beans are a really good source of protein. So are, oats, rice (brown), pasta, whole wheat, legumes, nuts (especially almonds), lentils, Lima beans, peanut butter, tofu, and soy.

Answer 6

It is easy to obtain sufficient protein, even if you are vegetarian. Plant proteins are not inferior to animal proteins. In fact , eating more soy and other plant proteins are actually beneficial

Answer 7

Nuts

Answer 8

beans beans thier good for ya heart
the more you eat them the more you fart!1


oh and it's a good source of protein too lol

Answer 9

Tofu! I love soy products. I grew up eating tofu. To me, it is a 'comfort' food, as my grandmother used to make it at home from scratch. It was an extra special treat to have her fresh tofu. Plus, you can use tofu in tons of recipes.

Answer 10

if you are a vegan... you would already know this answer.


first of all NO suppliment is nessesary NOR is it effective.

vegans do not take suppliments.. do YOU know why? have you read how suppliments are binded?

thus... you're not a vegan... esp. if you ingest suppliments..

and thus you're not a vegan if you don't know where to get your proteins.

THUS you can stop annoying us now.....

sighs....
