I eat lots of veggie protein; Beans, hemp seeds, soybeans, dairy products, mock meats, etc.

[newgrandmother 725]

erp what are mock meats. i recently found out texturized protien is not good for you because of a chemical they use to seperate the protien and fiber in soybeans.

i have found some good stuff at trader joes to eat but mostly processed but i do watch the sodium and because i cant eat mch i eat less of the serving anyway

Mock meats are like Boca burgers, Morning Star Farms Breakfast sausage, tofu hot dogs, etc. Not all have TVP in them but they are processed. You already check labels so you'll do fine.

Maybe organic sprouted tofu. It's yummy, lots of Protein. I'm still on the purée stage and I have not attempted to purée but I do plan on eating that for my majority of 'lean protein' once on solid.
