That's the thing, is that so few recipe books actually list the nutritional info. The Moosewood books are an exception -- I have 2 and really like them, but the protein content per serving isn't as high as I would like. I guess I could tweak them, maybe stir in some unflavoured whey powder or brown rice powder into creamy dishes. I've had mixed success adding protein powder to things but I've found I can usually sub it when flour is called for as a thickener.

Boston lettuce makes good wraps for black bean burritos.
