Good Plant Based Protein
When forging ahead on a plant based diet the main question I get asked is where do you get your protein from. Well, I wanted to give a great list of protein rich foods, that are not meat based.
Soy Beans-1 cup cooked = 28 g
Pearl barley-1 cup raw = 20 g
Lentis-1 cup cooked = 18 g
Split peas-1 cup cooked = 16 g
Oat bran-1 cup raw = 16 g
Pinto, kidney or black beans-1 cup cooked = 15 g
Oatmeal (not instant)-2 cups cooked = 12 g
Black-eyed peas or lima beans-1 cup cooked = 12 g

Great content. Looking for some nutrition materials when I stumbled across your site.
