Here is a list of foods with higher amount of protein just to ease your mind…

If you are eating enough calories and consuming plant-based foods, you will be getting plenty of protein. Not to worry! It is much more important to think about getting a sufficient amount of fibre. Fibre feeds your gut microbiome and your gut health is linked to your overall health. Think about that for a hot second. 😉
