What are the five things that contain two times more protein and calcium than meat
1) Peanuts
Peanuts are a good source of protein. You can find quality peanuts from the market places or peanuts butter.
Do you know that 100 grams of peanuts contain 24 grams of protein, whereas 100 grams of chicken contains only 15 to 16 grams of protein?
2) Paneer
Paneer is a fresh cheese prevalent in the Indian subcontinent. It is an unaged, non-melting farmer cheese made by curdling milk with a fruit- or vegetable-derived acid, such as lemon juice. Its acid-set form (cheese curd or acid-set cottage cheese) is called chhena.
You can prepare Paneer by adding food acid, such as lemon juice, vinegar, citric acid, or dahi (yogurt),[14] to hot milk to separate the curds from the whey. The curds are drained in muslin or cheesecloth, and the excess water is pressed out. Then Paneer is dipped in chilled water for 2–3 hours to improve its texture and appearance.
Especially vegetarian people, you will be happy to know that 35 grams of protein are available in 100 grams of Paneer, and it is two times more than chicken.
3) Almonds
Almonds are full of protein and other nutritious substances. If protein is deficient in your body, then you start eating only five almonds. The deficiency of protein in your body will begin to go away.
4) Gram
You probably do not know that horses eat most of the gram because it is the highest calcium found in gram because of which the bones of the horse remain strong. If you also start consuming grams, then you do not have any problem related to bones.
5) Rajma
You may have eaten Rajma rice many times, but you are unknowingly eating protein, you would not do not know that about 40 grams of protein is available in 100 gram of Rajma.
