Sure, 100 grams of raw spinach has only 2.9g of protein. But spinach cooks down a lot.

And remember, if you're trying to get to 50g of protein a day, you add everything together. Was your breakfast a slice of toast and some berries? You might have eaten like 5g of protein there, and you haven't even had an egg or anything that's a real protein. If you add an egg, that's 12g of protein at breakfast.

Ate a pb&j for lunch? That might have been another 10g of protein in that sandwich. Add a small side salad with some chickpeas and you're easily at 15g of protein.

Then for dinner, a serving of lentils is like 13g. Suppose you ate that with some raita and spinach, and you're easily at like 20g of protein at that meal already.

So that's like 47g of protein. Eat a handful of nuts or two oranges and you're at 50g of protein.
