Vegan Protein Options

Eat vegan? Try these combinations to get protein:

Quinoa and vegetables tossed with olive oil and sea salt. Make it light and cool with tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, and fresh herbs. Go the warm route with roasted mushrooms, wilted spinach, and caramelized shallots. The combinations are endless.

Black beans and brown rice. Add cilantro, onions, green and red peppers, jalapeños, and season with a heavy hand of cumin, coriander, and chili powder.

Stir fry of vegetables tossed with brown rice and beans. Drizzle your favorite Asian sauce.

Lentils cooked down with olive oil, tossed with spinach (to wilt it), and topped with pepperoncinis. For a little color, add diced carrots and onions to the lentils as they cook.

Hummus and vegetables. Need I say more.
