soya chunks how much protein - #24341
I am a bit confused about soya chunks and how much protein are in them. I mean, I've been trying to eat healthier since my last check-up. The doc suggested more plant-based proteins and someone mentioned soya chunks being really high in protein. I bought a pack last week, and I thought I was doing great till I read the label. I mean, I can see that it says a decent amount, but honestly, how much protein do these little things really have? Like, if I cooked up a cup, would it be equal to eating chicken? Or is it more like just a snack. My neighbor swears by them and says they cure her hunger, yet I wonder—do I need to combine them with something else? Besides, I had a bad experience the first time I made them, they come in these weird dry chunks, and once I cooked them, I didn’t know what to do then! How exactly should I prepare them to actually benefit from the protein? Just need some clarity on how much protein can I really get from soya chunks and if they're worth adding to my meals regularly or not!
