QUESTIONS THAT COME UP

Can I build muscle on a vegetarian diet?

Yes. Eggs, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese and whey are complete proteins, and legumes stack on top. It takes slightly more planning than a chicken-based diet — this page is the plan.

Why do so many of these use dairy and eggs?

Because they're the densest vegetarian proteins a normal supermarket sells. Vegan swaps exist (tofu, soy yogurt) but change the macros — check the swap lines.
