How can i get the protein and other things from foods other then meat?

Question

i am vegetarian, but i need some tips on how to get the protein and other things that meat gives you.

Answer 1

Beans, nuts, try tofu or fake meat. Also things like protein powder is useful.

Answer 2

take vitamins...they have some especially for vegetarians now. they're not big chalky horse pills...they're chewable ones. i think it's great how you're a vegetarian and are making sure you're keeping yourself healthy. also... there are lots of veggies and fruits out there that supply protein and other essential vitamins and minerals. don't forget about milk/soy milk, soy cheese, veggie burgers, chick'n patties...there's a lot to name so just look in you're grocery stores meatless section and you should be able to find what you're looking for. :-)

Answer 5

Along with things like beans and nuts, you could try fake meat. Imitation meat is often used making soy, and contains a lot of protein. It is also a lot MORE healthier then the meat product.

I eat imitation meat for my protein needs. Taste very good! Try brands like MorningStar.

Yay Vegetarians!
