Tämä high-protein vegan salad is a very easy and very tasty lunch loaded with 39 grams of protein per serving. It’s easy to make in larger quantities that can be used to meal prep a whole week of healthy, high-protein lunches.
When I’m doing my aterian valmistelu for the week, I like to make recipes that are easy to store, easy to whip up, and are full of protein to support my daily workouts. For breakfast, I would typically make my Runsasproteiininen chiavanukas or Yön kaura proteiinijauheella, but when I want a simple lunch, I make this protein salad. It’s made with only wholesome ingredients that you probably already have in your fridge.

Ravitsemus
Ainesosat ja vaihdot
This salad is easy to put together and while the dressing contains quite a few ingredients, they’re all very basic and wholesome. For the salad, you need:
- Kahviherneet – I use organic canned chickpeas. Chickpeas are rich in protein and delicious cold. If you prefer, you can replace them with black beans.
- Edamame Noodles – You can use any of your favorite noodles, from soba noodles to wheat pasta. I prefer high-protein noodles like quinoa noodles, lentil pasta, or these edamame noodles.
- Kurkku – Fresh, skinned English cucumber is my preference but you can also use Lebanese cucumber.
- Porkkanat – Fresh and cut into small sticks.
- Edamame-pavut – Edamame beans bring a lovely color and even more protein. They are better steamed or boiled for a few minutes.
- Kirsikkatomaatit – We’re picking cherry tomatoes from the garden.
For the dressing, you need:
- Maapähkinävoi – Use natural unsalted peanut butter. If you are allergic to peanuts, you can use almond butter or sunflower seed butter.
- Soijakastike – I use low-sodium soy sauce.
- Riisiviinietikka – Rice vinegar gives this salad dressing a great taste, but you can also use apple cider vinegar.
- Garlic Power – For taste.
- Vaahterasiirappi – Or any other liquid sweetener like coconut nectar.
- Limetti mehu – Freshly squeezed or bottled, both are fine.
