Unlike animal-based proteins, plant-based proteins — such as legumes, tempeh, nuts, seeds and protein-packed whole grains, like quinoa and buckwheat — contain dietary fiber, which is essential for digestion and maintaining a healthy gut.

Among these plant-based alternatives were traditional products such as tofu and tempeh, processed options such as veggie burgers and plant milks, products still under development such as lab-grown beef and unprocessed foods like soybeans and peas.

But a surprising runner-up was tempeh, a traditional Indonesian food made from fermented soybeans, which retains much of the nutritional properties of soybeans without much processing or additives.

Why not try to cook a bean chilli, chickpea curry, or tempeh stir-fry?

It's much like making miso, and results in a protein similar to tempeh.
