Many people do not consume enough vegetables, which has a negative impact on their health and appearance.
The main complaint is that such food is not filling and does not saturate the body with protein.
However, the situation can be easily corrected, says Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication BelNovosti.
What protein sources can be added to a vegetable salad?
Chickpeas
This legume is good both boiled and canned. The composition of chickpeas can rightfully be called impeccable.
Regular consumption of it will allow you to become a healthier person. Also, with the help of chickpeas, it is easy to fulfill your protein norm.
Quinoa
This crop "looks" good not only in soups and as a side dish: if you preserve the texture of quinoa, it will make the salad more interesting, tasty and nutritious.
Therefore, you can try to prepare a light salad using a healthy product.
Tofu
Plant-based dieters are well aware that tofu is one of the healthiest foods. Soy cheese is also a source of large amounts of protein.
Therefore, it is worth using it in cooking.
