How can Vegetarians meet their daily protein requirement?



  • Use supplements.
  • Drink lots of milk.
  • Take lots of Yogurt and cottage cheese (paneer).
  • Eat pulses, beans.
  • Eat quinoa seeds.
  • Peas are also great for you!


Another highly recommended way to get your daily protein, especially if you do not get enough time to cook is to take skimmed milk.

The advantages of taking skimmed milk:

  • No need to worry about purity.
  • Cheaper than buying an equivalent amount of milk (in Amul packets, for example).
  • Very easy to prepare and take with you: Just mix 6-8 spoons in a glass of water and you are good to go.
  • Can be carried with you wherever you want.
Sometimes, however there is an issue with some brands where the product does not mixwell or has bad taste. I have had such bad experiences myself.

I tried a lot of brands and finally settled on this one: Amirthaa Skimmed Milk Powder.

This is a good product, available at a great price and tastes decent too.

I am also attaching a handy chart to help you choose which sources of protein are the best:


Cheers!
