...cheese(paneer) instead.Nutrition is same? i m looking for some high protein low cal vegan food for dinner. Is grilled cottage cheese the only thing or is there any other alternative
You can't have cheese if you're a vegan. Vegans don't eat anything that comes from an animal, including dairy and eggs.
If you're just vegetarian (not vegan) and you got the terms mixed up, then yes, paneer is fine. It's coagulated with lemon juice rather than rennet.
There are tons of other foods out there. Legumes are great, some grains are wonderful, seeds and nuts can be eaten... there is no lack of vegetarian food.
For protein, try legumes (lentils, chickpeas, beans), quinoa and tofu. To get all essential amino acids in one hit, peanut butter on wholemeal bread. Quinoa also has all amino acids in it.
unless it's dairy-free than no. Vegans don't eat any chicken, fish poultry or anything made by an animal such as eggs, honey, milk and dairy products etc. For protien, you should have lentils or tofu, or even better, tempeh.
Here's some information on protein-rich vegan food you can use as a giude;
http://www.vrg.org/nutrition/protein.htm
Paneer is made with Grade A milk. Vegans cannot eat/drink dairy products. I make fresh paneer pretty much every week. I recommend all my vegetarian friends to have milk/yogurt/paneer for protein. But if you are a vegan than you should have soy milk and dry fruits to get the nutrition. Fresh vegetables are also good. try to add vegetable soup and lentil soup in your diet. They will give you all the nutrition you need. If you have tasted Paneer before than it will be harder not to eat. it. But you can substitute Paneer with Tofu. Tofu is more healthy, looks same as paneer and have less fat.
Do you mean vegan or vegetarian? Vegans eat no animal products, vegetarians eat no meat but generally eat some dairy products (cheeses, butter, etc) and sometimes eggs.
Paneer is high in protein, similar or slightly lower to meats. Other alternatives would be beans, lentils, nuts and soy products like tofu. There are a lot of other foods though, look up the phrase vegan (or vegetarian) protein sources on google. If you can eat milk products paneer is a good substitute but lower in iron and some other nutrients than meats/chicken. You may want to add some extra iron-rich foods like spinach, lentils and beans.
not if you're vegan. vegan means nothing that has a face or comes from something with a face. so basically fruits, vegetables, soy and grains and things made from those
