We can go down the penis route.. but if you want a sensible answer I wouldn't go with the protein bars, they are usually full of sugar. Stick with meat (chicken, not penis) to increase your intake throughout the day. |

Fine, I'll be the adult 
I tend to stick to a lot of lean meats like chicken, turkey and fish and try to incorporate them in ally meals. As far as snacks go, nuts are brilliant and I also buy some of those protein yoghurts from Aldi which are great! Protein powder is a great supplement too, either to just mix with water or to incorporate into some overnight oats or other meals too!  |

It can be very versatile in how you use it. I stick to the vanilla one 😇 |

The Grahams protein yoghurt pouches taste really nice and are very convenient - they have 25g of protein (can get them from Home Bargains). Warburtons do a ‘protein power’ bread which is lovely and is 16g of protein per two slices. It really helps to bump up the protein if you have it with a chicken/ turkey/ tuna sandwich etc. Light Babybel cheese is also handy for a snack - they have 5g of protein each  |

Thanks, I have all of them in my normal diet; I was asking more it the context of this thread; protein advice for exercise. As vegan, is the protein intake from a normal diet enough to sustain an exercise regime? |

Most the powders, yogurts etc. suggested above are ultra processed which aren't ideal if you're seeking a health kick.
They're not necessary either. You can get all your protein needs with the above, just make sure to combine them.
If you have a particular goal, use a tracking app. Personally I'll maybe eat a hummus sandwich or extra nuts if feel I need to bump my protein. Generally it isn't necessary though. |

A lot of the powders and yoghurts aren't really meant to be a main source of protein though, but more a supplement to your diet bump your intake up conveniently. I suppose it depends on the goals you want to achieve though. |
