High-Protein VEGAN Meal Prep (No Supplements Needed)

How do you feel about mcdougall and the other doc's saying to keep your protein very low for the health of your kidneys? I'm also wfpb but I find when I go low protein I'm fatigued, low energy and not satisfied. I increased my soy intake and actually make seitan. My energy levels are good now. How many grams do you think I need daily? I'm 43 female 5'5. Thanks and love your channel!
I want to add that I'm somewhat active, if that makes a difference.

I love this video, it’s so helpful! Leif, I’ve seen you cooking your tofu on aluminum foil in a few videos and I’m worried about your beautiful brain, as I’ve read cooking on aluminum is strongly associated with Alzheimer’s disease. I’m oil free too and I love using parchment paper- it works great. I love your mission and I’m cheering for you! 💚🌱

The kale stems can be used in your stir fry, that is what I do. Prep it with your bell peppers. Love this prep. I do your breakfast as shake, lol

I've shifted towards vegetarian/vegan meals after moving out a month ago because it's cheaper, and honestly is quite delicious! I feel an increased amount of energy throughout my days, and I'm saving money, both at the same time! Let's go!

No supplements means protein powder is ok? am I missing something? haha

Well done! I do 'batch cooking' which tends to be more like a big pot of brown rice, and a big pot of beans, possibly 1-2 tubs of tofu and some veg prep. I then use them in meals until gone. Having each meal fully prepped certainly makes it easier to complete all the meal prep at one time, and it's packed to go for more convenience. I need to give this method a try. I also wonder, as many wfpb spokes people and doctors claim that you don't need to worry about getting adequate protein, providing you eat enough calories, did you find through your years of experimenting that the higher protein helped you better achieve your goals? I'm torn between both sides. Thanks again! Great meals! ~Tracy (I also follow you on IG)

I have a hard time eating 3 BIG meals. 1 meal that is large is fine, but my other 2 tend to be smaller with 1 or 2 snacks (mini-meals); with one of the snacks being close to my workout. Any reason you don't add in a snack?

Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I love all your videos and podcasts.
Great advice and insight. I love how you talk about the ups and downs we all struggle with.
My favourite quote is CHOOSE YOUR HARD
