How can I adopt a vegetarian diet with soy allergies? I want to cut the meat I eat while increasing the amount of fruits and vegetables. Unfortunately, my diet is limited by my multiple food allergies. One of my most severe allergy is soybeans - yes, this pretty much eliminates the possibility of eating tofu or seitan.
How can I cut the meat, but still protein in my diet without eating soy foods?
You do not eat soy or tofu in a vegetable * Is there a lot of animal foods and soy-free there! Seitan does not contain soy, even if it has wheat / gluten if you are allergic to wheat.
Soy protein without vegs: spirulina, quinoa, buckwheat, hemp, amaranth, lentils, seitan (wheat gluten), nuts and seeds (nuts almonds, cashews, walnuts, cashew nuts Brazil nuts, pistachios, macadamia nuts, pecans, hazelnuts, peanuts, sesame, sunflower, flax, hemp, pumpkin seeds), beans (black, lima, pinto, kidney, navy, oven, split peas, chick peas, beans, mung beans, pink-soy), grains (barley, corn, brown rice, millet, oats, rye, bulgur, whole wheat bread, wheat germ, wheat , wild rice, Spelt, teff, triticale, whole wheat berries, whole wheat couscous), vegetables (raw seaweed, spirulina raw, artichokes, beets, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage , cauliflower, cucumbers, eggplant, green peas, green pepper, cabbage, lettuce, mushrooms, green mustard, onions, potatoes, spinach, tomatoes, turnip greens, watercress, yams, pumpkins, apples potato), fruit (apple, banana, melon, grapes, honeydew melon, grapefruit, orange, papaya, peach, pear, pineapple, strawberry, tangerine, watermelon), nutritional yeast, vegetable milks (rice, oats, hemp, etc, soya), legumes, couscous meat substitutes, and foods prepared in advance that do not contain soy (as some products Amys).

You can cook food and subusite or delete what you are allergic. Amy's Kitchen good vegan soy free entries. So delicious and Rice Dream make frozen deserts that use rice and soy milk instead cocnut.
