Tofu, seitan, tempeh made without rice, etc are plant-based, high protein and low carb. Various fungi fall into the same category, although they aren't plants. Make a dish with vegetable oil and you'll have a high fat and protein meal with minimal carbs that is plant-based.

Makes sense, so are avocados, olives ect... (mostly fat), but you are essentially eliminating 90% of plants out there...

When you say Plant based diet, people assume lettuce, beans, tomatos, carrots, olives, broccoli, etc.. etc...

You eat those on the side, particularly lettuce, spinach, broccoli etc in as large of quantities as you'd like because they're low in carbs.
