Despite the common misconception, you don’t need to rely on meat, dairy, eggs, or other animal products to reach your daily protein goals. Beans, lentils, tofu, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and meat alternatives all contain protein, and these ingredients can often be used in place of chicken, beef, pork, or fish in recipes. Eating a combination of these plant-based ingredients ensures a balanced intake of protein, fiber, and other essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients.
