Bodybuilders know the importance of protein in their diets and in quest of high protein diets they usually rely on meat based recipes. However there are many vegetarian ingredients that are rich in good protein and amino acids. I try some of protein rich vegetarian ingredients to make a nice treat for myself and it turn out really good. So I decided to share it on this community.
I have steamed mushroom and green peas with almond milk along with some herbs and spices. Green peas are a good source of protein for vegetarians and mushrooms are low in fat and high in vitamins and minerals. By combining them I have created a nice post or pre-workout meal. It is a no fuss recipe that needs little time and culinary skills; anyone can make it even you, try it out.
