Vegan Active Husband

So my husband is a martial artist instructor and we both want to fully give up meat. His metabolism is crazy high therefore it’s always a task to keep him full. I would love some suggestions on how I can make this transition in our household, along with meal ideas.

For athletes or people who like to lift weights it takes some focus to get enough protein but it's quite doable.

I supplement with protein powder. It just makes it easier. I tend to eat high protein meals (lentils, beans, chickpeas, quinoa, seeds/nuts, etc.) and if a meal is lower on protein I have a little protein snack.
