I posted my recipe http://www.gentlechristianmothers.co...topic=168213.0

Sticky from up on top - Protein - great links http://www.gentlechristianmothers.co...?topic=69349.0

The other thing I personally do is we drink oat milk which is high in protein -- I believe 4 grams per serving..

I was thinking of changing to almond milk if I find its cheaper. It's a little lower in protein.

I also recently posted my favorite smoothie recipe here somewhere - but I don't know where so here it is.

Breakfast smoothie
1 to 2 C liquid (oat milk or o.j. are my fav)
1 serving hemp powder
1 serving greens powder
1 banana
1/2 C frozen fruit of some sort

I am VERY concerned about my protein level because the last time I was veggie, I ended up protein starved. I know it can be done (eating enough protein) but I wasn't doing it properly so this time I am REALLY careful. I have been trying to get 3 to 6 servings of protein because my body just needs it.

Another that popped into mind nut butters on ww toast (peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter).
