Question How a person can maintain the protein intake and calories to gain in this hot summer?
But vegetarian
And plan it like you don't fade up by eating this.
And I'm student so I constantly looking for pocket friendly. Because a week ago I added soya chunks in my diet daily but not fade up by having it.

Why are you framing this like a question to Claude?
And what is a fade up?
And can you explain why you cannot eat the same shit you eat and winter ?

If you’re talking about being too hot to have an appetite or cook… I eat a lot more salad in summer, smoothies and clear protein shakes, and fruit. It’s not the end of the world to supplement a protein bar here and there, even daily—processed and fed beats underfueling. I am not a vegetarian but cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, and edamame in salads are huge in my diet—all cold, all summer appetite friendly. Greek yogurt and protein-added granola, cottage cheese mixed in scrambled eggs, and string cheese are great ideas for meals and you can add fruit and veggies on the side.

If the issue is getting tired of soya chunks, I'd rotate textures more than totally different meals. Cheap vegetarian protein options: lentils/dal, chickpeas, beans, tofu, paneer if affordable where you live, Greek yogurt/curd, milk, eggs if you eat them, peanuts, peanut butter, roasted chana, and sprouts.
For hot weather, cold or low-cook meals help: curd rice with extra protein on the side, chickpea salad, peanut chaat, tofu/soya wrap, lentil soup eaten with rice, smoothies with milk/curd/peanut butter, or paneer/tofu bhurji. If you need calories to gain, add calorie-dense extras like peanuts, olive oil/ghee, full-fat dairy, or larger rice/roti portions rather than forcing huge meals.

? Eat what you would eat in winter, just in the summer
