Protein for a Vegetarian Diet

Birgitte Antonsen

“How do I get enough protein and how much should I consume daily?” “What kind of vegetable proteins are there and how do I cook with them?” These and more questions about a vegetarian diet will be discussed, as well as the nutritional aspects of vegetable proteins, and why protein is important in our diets. Birgitte will cook with some of the most abundant protein sources, such as lentils, beans, tempeh, tofu, nuts and seeds, and she’ll show you how to use them in varied ways. The dishes you will sample are Coconut Lentil Soup; Tempeh Bolognese; Herb Tofu Kofta; Fresh Herb and Vegetable Nut Loaf; and Crazy Bean Chili. Vegetarian; no dairy, eggs or gluten.
