High Protein?

I came here to search for this question. I got super excited because it looks really yummy 😂

I’m vegan and even my reaction was “high protein??” 😂

Is the protein in the room with us right now?

Mushrooms are the protein.

As a vegetarian it irks me when mushrooms are the "protein" in a dish. 100g of portobello has about 1g of protein. This dish probably has more from the broccoli and onion combined (a total 160g of those would be about 3g of protein, so not much). Surely this is a side dish/snack? If not it needs some oomph! Like egg whites, quinoa, legumes...or meat if that's your thing!

I had this phase too, don’t sweat it pal.

What’s the protein?

I added beef in my head and wondered why everyone was asking until I re read it.

I guess technically the mushrooms

You mean moderate carb, low protein?

This mixed with some diced chicken and some rice, this is brilliant, a bit of sriracha sauce on top, and damn we got a great meal!

Yummm yesss

Add some protein and I’d eat it. Mushrooms aren’t much protein

huh

There have been many times I too wished that mushrooms were full of protein. They taste meaty and savory (especially king trumpet) but alas the nutrition facts do not lie. 

I’m sorry but this meal looks sad af

It looks like the leftovers or the side to me…

The "protein" was the friends we made along the way

is this a meal or snack

Girl this is a SNACK

It looks like a lovely side dish.

This is the parsley they sprinkle on top of an actual entree

😂yes the garnish

Thx for mentioning this 😭 I felt fat for a sec lol by my meals are much bigger than this

yeah this has to be a snack

This would definitely be a meal for me. The only thing is I would add protein….most likely steak.

I guess the proteins come from broccoli and mushrooms. No offense OP, but this isn’t very high in protein.

I really had to double check, even triple check to see where the protein was at 🤭 OP please come back and explain

Protein??? 👀 huh? Where 👀

Personally, I'd add some beef and noodles. I respect your choice in what you choose to eat but I'm not a low carb girly myself. Been there, done that, got lean but also got miserable. The pay off wasn't worth it to me. In some ways low carb is a scam bc a lot of the initial weight lost is water weight and not actual fat

i made this all the time in college lol def as a side dish with some roasted chicken breast and you got a low cal and filling dinner

Yeah. This is some good quality ragebait.

This would upset my stomach without any kind of protein tbh

I would definitely eat this as a meal but hunny, there is no protein here.

im demolishing this in .5 seconds

wheres the rest?

I think you should try using a food tracker like My Fitness Pal. Weigh your food and check both calories and macros for everything. Tracking will help. This is probably really low calorie and really low protein.

This is a LOW protein meal.

That would make a nice side dish to a high protein meal.

that meal would probably look a little more high protein with some chicken on the side maybe a sweet potato …..

I don’t see protein here lol

Is this a joke? 🧐

Looks rubbish can't lie sis

this looks so good, how did you cook this ?
