What's an appropriate source of protein for a vegetarian diet?

I'm considering changing to a vegetarian diet for health reasons, but I'm concerned about getting appropriate levels of protein. I'm also concerned about potential food items and their actual nutritional worth, like those meat substitute burger patties.What's an appropriate source of protein for a vegetarian diet?
You could supplement with whey protein, peanuts, certain beans. Look into products like Ensure and Boost, and whether the proteins in them are animal based. Also soy, tofu, etc. Hope you are OK, bro.
dont really agree with ulrina because its not just about getting enough to get by, it's about creating %26amp; maximizing health. protein is a huge factor and not only protein but amino acids (found in protein) effects you more than most realize



Soybean: rich source of protein which accounts for large quantities of tempeh, tofu, soy hot dogs, soy burgers, and other soy products in the market.



Dairy: milk, cheese, yogurt



Legumes: Kidney beans, lentils, lima beans, split peas,

Quinoa

Grains: Rice, millet, rye, barley, wheat.



Fruits: Apples, bananas, grapes, honeydew melons, papayas, pears, strawberries, watermelons, and so on.



Nuts and Seeds: peanut butter, almonds, walnuts, really any nut

Filbert, hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds



%26amp; dont forget egg whites

or

protein suppliments, especially amazing, i mix this with fruits and juices to make a smoothy... pretty much a meal in its own



... google has a hundred sites on recipes and even vegan protein sourcesWhat's an appropriate source of protein for a vegetarian diet?
Hey, there is actually no need to worry about protein intake. A protein deficiency is extremely rare in the developed world, even among vegetarians.



All vegetables and whole grains (eg rice, bread) contain protein to some extent.

Beans, tofu, nuts, soy and meat replacements are also very good sources.



As long as you have some nuts, beans or dairy with each meal, as well as have a decent vegetable intake, you will be getting plenty of protein.

eggs, peanut butter, beans, tofu, lentils....



If you consume them on a daily basis and in moderation you have nothing to worry about, make sure to drink water as well

My Mother says that beans and rice together are a perfect protein and we all know Mother is always right. It's best to really study up, because the changes, well, it's just better, my Mom says. Here is where she would tell you to go. She is always quite willing to tell people where to go.

Tofu has a lot of protein, also peanut butter is good too, when I was little I never ate meat, but I ate peanut butter by the spoonfuls and the doctor said that I would get as much protein from peanut butter as I would from meat.



Hope this helps!
