First I've heard of this - most studies are consistent on this. More Raw Plants in your diet the healthier you are.

I make a lot of burritos with eggs, beans, veggies
Swap your bread for Ezekiel bread
Make tofu or chickpea salad for sandwiches
Chickpea cutlets with spaghetti or on a sandwich https://www.theppk.com/2010/11/doublebatch-chickpea-cutlets/
Split pea or lentil soup
Faina or farinata (chickpea flour breads)

I eat a mostly plant-based diet and getting enough protein to support my heavy weight lifting and fitness goals has been a struggle; there are only so many beans I can eat, haha. I do eat some occasional fish and "regular" dairy sometimes, which matters because right now Greek yogurt is a big protein source for me, but I want to expand from that. There are a number of plant-based protein shakes that are good and also help, but I need ideas for food as I can't just drink protein shakes all day. Any ideas?

No one in America "needs" more protein. But if you really want to get protein--go to McDonalds, KFC, Panda Express, Wendys, Chipotle, like every other American.

Maybe OP is from a culture where protein is limited, then she does need to pay attention to protein intake!

What's your evidence for this? Cite your sources.

Spending hours per day planning vegan food and shopping at specialty store def ages you, like we don’t have demanding jobs!

The idea that you have to extensively "plan" vegan food showcases the level of ignorance on this board and in this country.

NP. It makes me ill. So it’s bad for me. Also highly processed. I’d rather eat edamame.

Soy makes you ill and is highly processed so you eat edamame? Do you not know what edamame is?

Excess anything is bad for you.
Also, most of those "studies" are with people who barely eat anything healthy at all, so of course adding some vegetables to their diet will improve their health 100% of the time.

However that doesn't mean a 100% plant based diet is healthy either. Read more, learn more.

I love paneer. Moms organic market sells a nice brand. Its so much better than tofu. I cut it in cubes, like 3/4 inch, and warm it up in a sauce and pour over rice.

I do a curry dish with fried garlic, add about 3/4 tablespoon of Badia curry in pan in oil a minute, add about 3/4 can of coconut, and can tomato paste, simmer 15 minutes, add paneer few minutes. Serve over rice. TJs sells a lot of sauces in jars. Its probably good cold too in salads.

You can also do spaghetti fritatta. Its adding a bunch of eggs and some cheese to spaghetti, bake, then slice like pie.

Special K loaf. Theres lots of variations online. Its basically a 10 ounce box of special K cereal, 1.5 lbs of cottage cheese, fry 3/4 onion, 1 cup of ground unsalted pecans in blender, 4 eggs. bake in a casserole 45 minutes at 350 degrees. adding 1 tablespoon of Braggs liquid amino acids makes more flavorful too.

I have been vegetarian for 34 years and have kept my weight on target. I eat some form of soy every day . Lots of crunchy raw veggies throughout the day. Peanut butter. Greek yogurt and kefir. Regular old cows milk in coffee and cereal. Lots of fruit. Some beans. Basically anything but meat.

Your ideas are revolting.

These arent really my ideas. I did not invent fritatta, or paneer in curry sauce, or the loaf. Never been to an indian restaurant? Special K loaf might sound odd to you, but it's a thing. Theres likely 25+ recipe variations on the internet.
