UK Vegan High Protein Foods Directory
It's great to see UK supermarkets getting on board with so many more options for vegans and those wanting to follow a plant based or plant focused nutrition plan. Unfortunately, not all options are high in protein so I have collated a directory of UK supermarket food products for you. This is not an exhaustive list of products, but rather, a tool to guide you toward higher protein options. The main tip here when shopping, is to check the nutritional details on the back of the packet and aim for as much protein per serving as possible (anything over 10g is a good start, with additional protein being topped up from your veg, carb and fat sources). I also look for soya protein as this is High Biological Value protein (containing a decent amount of all 9 essential amino acids). I have written a guide to getting enough protein on. a vegan diet.
I will continue to add to this directory over time so save it in your browser favourites and keep returning for updates as new products make it under my radar!
