Tempeh 1/4 cup suggested serving
Tofu All varieties, 1/2 cup suggested serving
Yuba (Bean Curd or Sheet)

Thanks everybody! :) Report Abuse

Soybeans, peanuts and tree nuts are very low in carbohydrates. All of them are high in fat though.

If you want a high protein,low carb AND low fat food, you have to look into products like TVP and seitan (wheat gluten).

Eggs and nuts
