🌱 Bet you didn't expect spinach to make this list.
🫘 One thing to know: this ranks protein per 100 calories, not per serving. Spinach scores high because it's so low in calories, but you'd have to eat a lot of it to hit those grams. Seitan, tofu, and tempeh get you there in a normal portion.
🫛 If you’re trying to eat more plant-based, you don’t have to rely on just one protein source. Variety can help you meet your protein needs while also adding fiber and other nutrients to your diet.
