A lot of people overlook easy high protein sources. We get locked into the protein sources like tofu, and ignore the wider variety of sources. White beans blended create a really tasty cream soup, sauce, or dip. I've become a fan of a YouTube channel called Tortellino. He is an elderly man who shows the easy recipes from his childhood. Most are meat free, and I just use nutritional yeast to replace parmesan, and soy or cashew milk to replace dairy. Veggie broth can replace chicken broth. I made his frozen pea creamy pasta last week, and it was quite tasty. I just blended half the peas, poured it on the dried pasta, added water, cooked it for 10 minutes, and then sprinkled nutritional yeast on top.
I, also, like Merle.
