9 frozen foods containing vegetable protein

Eating vegetable protein is a hot trend and it still exists, especially if nutritionists have a say in this. Turning to a healthy, plant-based diet (hello lentils and beans) can provide significant benefits, such as reducing the risk of obesity, heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

In this vegetarian bowl, falafel or crispy chickpea pie is delicious and good for you. The percentage of the healthiest plant protein in the main dish comes from chickpeas and brown rice. Chickpeas count as a pulse study and found that pulsed intake provides a range of health benefits, including potential anticancer effects.

A little Greek yogurt in the sauce provides more protein, making the grain slightly creamy. The bowl is pleasant, but more is added harissa (or sriracha) and fresh parsley.
