She loves smoothies, so it's easy enough to make her a pea-protein smoothie + fruit + greens + chia + nut butter ... it's nearly a full day's worth of protein. </p> <p>We do buy some prepared vegan staples, like soy/coconut yogurt, hummus, and plant milks. We prefer almond milk, but it's protein content is less than impressive. I don't like soy milk, but it packs a ton per serving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2705188 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 16:10:13 +0000 Mrs D 2705188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eggs, Siggis yogurt, cheese... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2705178 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 15:49:38 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2705178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Vegetarians. I put hemp hearts in smoothies. I put ground almond and hemp hearts with dried fruit in oatmeal. I put ground almond into banana pancakes. </p> <p>Other things she'll eat: tofu, cottage cheese, cheese, eggs, veggie dogs/veggie bacon slices, and nuts like cashews, peanuts, and almonds. She doesn't like peanut butter and will rarely eat beans. I mix tvp or lentils into pasta sauces and casseroles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2705127 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 14:24:07 +0000 fancyfunction 2705127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hummus, peanut butter, almond milk, yogurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2705108 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 14:06:46 +0000 Orchid 2705108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Beans and peas, nuts (nut butters, nut milks, nut sauces), seeds (quinoa, sunflower, etc) vegetables </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2705083 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 13:35:46 +0000 PinkElephant 2705083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Greek yogurt, black beans, nut butters, nuts (almonds/cashews). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2705048 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 12:30:26 +0000 jhd 2705048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO doesn't eat a lot of meat but he does like deli meat, usually turkey or ham.

I also give her beans and lentils, which have been less of a fave, but she's not refusing things yet. She also eats up whole grains like quinoa and whole wheat pasta and bread, which have quite a bit of protein. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2704909 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 10:01:29 +0000 youboots 2704909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Black beans, eggs, cottage cheese. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2704906 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 09:59:16 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2704906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eggs, yogurt, and cheese.

It's his choice not ours in this case. So we try and feed him eggs, cheese, yogurt, milk, beans, edamame, peanut butter, nuts. Whole wheat breads and pastas often have more protein than white alternatives. He doesn't like tofu or hummus anymore, but we used to do those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/protein#post-2704892 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 09:44:42 +0000 Bao 2704892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What foods does your LO get most of their protein from? </p> <p>My girls aren't huge into meat so I'm trying to find other ways to get protein into them.
