What sources of protein are included in the protein-rich recipes?

Great animal sources of protein include, for example, different types of meat (dried, pre-made as well as fresh), eggs or fish. Plant-based sources, on the other hand, include legumes, plant-based alternatives to meat such as tofu, seitan or tempeh, nutritional yeasts or quinoa

The simplest way to add extra protein to your meals is by making use of protein powder. Whey concentrate is among the most commonly used and effective in terms of its price-to-effectiveness ratio, and it’s also highly suitable as a baking ingredient. Naturally, the recipes can also be enriched with other options such as whey isolate and micellar casein or milk protein. In case you suffer from lactose intolerance, or avoid consuming dairy products for any other reason, you may find beef or egg protein handy. Vegans and vegetarians won’t get a short deal either. For them, viable options are protein powders derived from soy, pea, rice, and hemp, as well as any other plant-based alternatives

Long story short, sources of protein are manifold, and it’s entirely up to the consumer to employ them in a variety of ways when preparing dishes to fit their diet.

Similarly, you can add cottage cheese, skyr or quark into a variety of creams, puddings or fillings
