Vegetarian Protein Per Meal Target

Vegetarian protein per meal targets split daily grams across breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks—avoiding one huge dinner that still misses earlier leucine needs.

A vegetarian protein per meal target sets a gram band for each eating occasion—often twenty-five to forty at lunch and dinner, fifteen to twenty-five at breakfast, and ten to twenty at snacks—so daily totals near 1. 6–2.

2 g/kg without one oversized dinner compensating for skimpy earlier meals. Lacto-ovo patterns can lean on eggs and yogurt; vegan patterns need soy or larger legume portions.

Weigh anchors once until portions feel automatic.

  • Is one high-protein vegetarian dinner enough?

    Usually not for muscle recovery—earlier meals need adequate protein and leucine too. Split targets across the day and use Ohga to see which meal slot fails first.
