There's actually protein in almost all food. Higher vegetarian sources of protein are: nuts, tofu, beans & other legumes, some kinds of oatmeal, & protein powder (not whey).
Most people actually get a lot more protein than they need (which can cause your body to lose calcium, and do other negative things), so as long as you're eating a balanced diet, you'll probably be fine.
I've been a vegetarian for a long time, and I've never had any nutritional difficulties. Think about all of the people in countries where a majority of the population is vegetarian, and it's easy to see that it's not usually a problem.

What many human beings do no longer comprehend is that all and sundry starchy ingredients frequently eaten are a minimum of 10% protein if not extra. that consists of rice, wheat, corn, and potatoes. Even the sophisticated, non-total grain variations of those ingredients nevertheless have the protein left (notwithstanding it is an unrelated subject). only approximately 10% of your energy would desire to come again from protein, and that's in accordance to USDA rules that have a tendency to bypass away some flexibility (Eg in the event that they say you like 10%, that doesn't advise 8% will reason any issues) some junk nutrients has a extreme ratio of energy to protein, jointly with fries, candy, and comfortable drinks. sophisticated fat and sugars can throw off the ratio of energy to protein, yet any nutrients in its organic type would have adequate protein. yet specific, it relatively is a threat to consume a vegan junk nutrients weight loss application that is undesirable to your well-being. keep in mind that purely a small proportion of the protein (amino acid molecules) which you consume ever unquestionably gets used for development new cells or repairing muscle tissue. maximum folk of the protein you consume purely gets burned as a source of energy, even on a low protein weight loss application. there is not any scientific data suggesting any reason human beings would desire the three+ pounds of protein each and every week that many omnivores consume.

The above foods are all good sources of protein. However, soy and vegtable proteins are not absorbed as well by the body as animal protein. Average people will be perfectly healthy with vegtable proteins. It shouldn't be a problem unless the vegtarian/vegan in question is trying to be a bodybuilder. Veg. diets can't achieve the same excessive muscle mass as animal protein diets.
I highly recommend going to your local library for more information. They can provide access to books, DVDs, databases and more information.

Meat is not the great source of protein your average Joe thinks it is. 4 ounces of red meat contains something like 25 grams of protein, whereas the same amount of soy has twice the protein and half the calories.
Avocado is very high in protein. Used as meat in many poor cultures. As such, they're healthier.
The combination of legumes and grains makes a perfect protein. Better assimilation as well.

Beans are just one alternative for protein when eating a vegetarian food plan. There are other sources of protein. Grains, legumes, seeds, nuts and vegetables also supply protein.
Grains include barley, brown rice, rice, oats, oatmeal, bulgur, corn, quinoa, millet, buckwheat groats and wheat products. Wheat products include couscous, pasta, cereal and bread.
Grains are rich in fiber, protein, B vitamins and zinc.
Legumes are another name for beans, peas and lentils. They are all good sources of fiber, protein, iron, calcium, zinc and B vitamins. They include chickpeas, lentils, dried peas, beans, soybeans and soy products.
Seeds and nuts include sunflower and pumpkin seeds, almonds, pecans, pistachios, walnuts, macadamias and the butters made from the nuts.
I also know of vegetarians who have successfully done the Zone diet or the South beach diet, if thats where you were headed.

Lentils and beans are good sources of protein. Unfortunately you need a lead time of about 30 minutes to cook them.Lots of Indian recipes use lentils.
Italian recipes featuring beans, like Pasta Fagioli, are good balances of carbs and protein

For vegetarians, they eat eggs, drink milk, and sometimes eat cheese that contain some protein.
For vegans, they eat any plant products that contain protein like beans. I don't know any other plant products that have protein.
