What foods have the most protein on a vegetarian diet?

Looking to gain weight on a vegetarian diet.What foods have the most protein on a vegetarian diet?
To gain weight on a vegetarian diet, think more about calories than protein. Get your protein from beans (which are calorically dense AND have protein) then focus on the calories. Eat a lot of potatos, sweet potatos and yams to be exact. One good sized yam or sweet potato can be up to 200 calories, which is a great side dish for a vegetarian looking to gain weight (in a healthy way, because sweet potatos have essential nutrients and are high in fiber). You should also look into buying soy products, because those are made from soy protein, and if you add soy cheese to things that adds protein AND calories. Soy cheese on baked potatos would be perfect!

BEANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eggs, all soy-based products.....legumes (lentils are great), beans. For "non-food" options, there are protein shakes, powders, etc. Protein won't necessarily make you gain weight; you'll need to up your carbs as well. Are you a healthy individual?

Too much protein can tax your kidneys. How fast do you want to gain this weight? Veggie pizza, milk shakes, rice, veggies all will help......watch the fat content as well. You want to embark on a healthy regimen. Have you cleared this with your Physician? You might want to check with a nutritionist.
If you are trying to gain muscle from vegetarian diet, you are dreaming. No vegetarian food, i.e. beans, peas %26amp; lantils, can give you a full spectrum of amino acids which you need for

muscle growth. You still have to eat and eat enough of animal proteins. Otherwise you would not gain the muscle growth as much as you desire or would damage your muscles because of inadequate intake of proteins.
Are you ovo-lacto?Cheese and eggs are very high protein and high calorie. Beans are very good too, just be sure to combine with a grain product for complete amino acids.

"Diet for a Small Planet" is a great reference for how to combine foods with lots of good recipes and tips.

Cottage cheese (reduced fat version) is high in protein.

Dry roasted nuts like cashew, almonds and peanuts are good, if you do not mind a little fat.

Sprouted legumes like mung(green gram) are good.

Eat a variety of legumes. Try Indian menus with lot of legumes.

Milk and yogurt are good (fat free, plain)

Tofu, soy nuggets etc are good

If you eat rice, eat brown rice instead of white rice.
I'm a vegetarian too but I have to take vitamins for protein(I'm allergic to nuts soy and dairy) or beans, they're nasty but I gotta eat it
