Vegetarian nutrition: protein and vitamins

A vegetarian Indian kitchen can cover protein from dal, curd, paneer, and soy across the day. The same plate can still come up short on a few vitamins and minerals, especially when dairy is light. These posts look at both: the protein in the meals, and the nutrients worth checking.

Protein the plate can cover, and nutrients it may miss

Dal, curd, paneer, and soy can carry the protein. Milk and curd also carry much of the B12 and calcium. What is left to check is often vitamin D, iron, and B12 when dairy is scarce.

Protein from the meals you cook
