Plant-based proteins include legumes (nuts and seeds), beans, lentils (wheat gluten), seitan (wheat flour), and hemp seeds. Eating more plants can also provide anti-inflammatory benefits due to the high antioxidants in many fruits and vegetables. Almond or oat milk are great alternatives to cow's milk. They also contain proteins so they can be used as dairy substitutes. Alternatives like pumpkin seeds and nutritional yeast can lend cheesy flavor to dishes while providing more micronutrients than their animal-based equivalents. Various vegan protein powders suitable for shakes or smoothies are also great for adding extra nutrition without consuming animal products.

How to prepare plant-based dishes that are tasty and filling

It is possible to cook delicious, filling, plant-based dishes with the right ingredients, creative recipes, and preparation. One should start with fresh produce and other quality products. It's a good idea to create a grocery store list based only on the recipes. Additionally, invest in appropriate storage equipment to keep prepped food items fresh.

Next, when meal prepping is involved, it is important to focus on variety. Focus on whole foods, such as fruits, vegetables and nuts. In order to improve nutrition, aim for different colors. In each meal, it is important to consider the balance of fiber and protein as well as healthy fats. You can also make batch cooking easier by using kitchen appliances such slow cookers or multi-cookers.

If all else fails you can mix leftovers from earlier in week to create something new.
