The 11 Best Low FODMAP Vegan Sources Of Protein
A muscle-building diet doesn’t have to revolve around boiled chicken breasts.
The moment you begin any kind of exercise kick you’ll be told to up your protein intake. Protein is the fuel that repairs and builds muscles after a workout, so if you’re hitting the gym it makes sense to eat more of it.
The popular conception of protein tends towards meat and vast tubs of protein powder. Plain chicken breasts washed down with a protein shake is about as appetizing as it sounds. However, protein is actually present in decent amounts in a far wider range of foods than you might expect, as any hench vegan (henchetarian, if you will) can attest.
Whether you’ve sworn off meat or are just looking to vary your protein sources (and you should be), here are 11 low FODMAP sources of protein suitable for vegans. Please check the Monash app for serving sizes.
