MEAT SUBSTITUTES FOR VEGETARIAN BODYBUILDERS

Good news for avoiding eating animal flesh, you can be a vegetarian and still have a good string muscular body.
Simply incorporate these vegetarian stuff in your daily diet and you will get some good quality protein without eating flesh.

1.>TOFU:
Tofu is to soy milk what cheese is to milk, as the processes involved in making them are very similar.Tofu is available in three different varieties: regular, soft and firm.
For a meat-like texture, go with fresh, extra-firm or firm varieties. If you find it too bland, try marinating it before cooking, or cook it with other ingredients, as it will take on some of their flavor. Tofu is also available ready-flavored, smoked, spiced, or marinated.

Nutritional Value of TOFU:
A half-cup serving provides nearly 20% of your daily protein, has less than 100 calories, more calcium than a cup of milk, and is a good source of iron.

2.>TEMPEH:
Tempeh is a cultured soybean cake. This meat substitute, which originated in Indonesia, has a complex flavor that is often described as nutty and even meaty. It has a tender, chewy consistency and is usually sold in the refrigerated or frozen food case of your natural supermarket.

Nutritional value of Tempeh:
Since tempeh is made from whole soybeans, it is a fiber-rich food. A good source of protein, this meat substitute is also a generous source of many nutrients such as calcium, B-vitamins and iron.

3.>SEITAN:
Seitan, for instance,is known as “wheat gluten,” and is made from the same dough used to prepare pasta. It is believed to have come from ancient China, where it was a staple in the diet of vegetarian Buddhist monks. You’ll find it either in slices, or as one piece, usually vacuum-packed or in jars. It probably tastes more like meat than any other vegetarian alternatives.

Nutritional value of Seitan:
Seitan contains the same amount of protein you’ll find in beef, with one third of the calories. However, it is also very high in sodium.

4.>QUORN:
Available both as an ingredient and in a range of ready-made Quorn products, this meat substitute is made from a mycoprotein derived from the mushroom family. It’s grown in giant tanks using a natural fermentation process, and is then combined with a small amount of egg white and vegetable flavors to help give it the taste and texture of meat. Note that, because it contains egg white, Quorn is not suitable for vegans.

Nutritional value of Quorn:
Quorn is low in fat and salt and high in fiber. It contains only half the amount of protein found in seitan or beef, but it is very light and easy to digest.

4.>NUTS:
NUTS like cashewnut, groundnut(peanut),almond,walnut are rich sources of Protein.

Eat these foods in your daily diet and get high amount of good quality Proteins from all vegetarian sources.

Happy Bodybuilding.....
