Subject: Creative protein options

I'm sure the parents of those vegan kids have many creative protein options besides peanut butter. What about hummus, soynut butter, peabutter, sunflower seed butter, tahini, quinoa, bean dip, three bean salad, baked beans, refried beans, split pea soup, black bean soup, lentil soup, bean burritos, vegan hot dogs, vegan burgers, soy milk, soy yogurt and vegan cheese? Breads, tortillas and pizza crust made with high protein flours like soy flour, garbanzo flour and fava bean flour are also a good protein source. I don't think those vegan kids will be malnourished if they don't eat peanut butter for 5 meals a week.
