If you are simply talking about getting protein,
http://www.vegparadise.com/protein.html
this is a chart of all the various beans and vegetables etc. that have protein and how much. The charts are after several paragraphs of information. By eating a nice variety of fruits, veggies, grains and beans, you can be perfectly healthy and balanced.

If you just want to have meals similar to what you ate on a meat-eating diet, these are some good fake meats.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All of These Are Vegan
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IVES- ground "beef" - good for spaghetti and tacos
IVES- hot dogs, bologna, and burger patties, and sausage patties
Gimmie Lean- sausage
(add rosemary to give "sausage" that sausage taste)
Morning Star Farms- beef and chicken strips
Tofurky- lunch meats
Bocca- chick patties
White wave- wheat meat - excellent for buffalo wings etc.

If you also eat eggs and milk, I hear that Morning Star Farms and Quorn have great products.

But most of all, I love Tofu. It is so versatile. It is great in chinese food, buffalo tofu, Faken... You name it and you can try it.

there are vegaterian foods, some of which are "suppose to be" replacement for meat but READ THE LABLES, cause some have dairy in it, and if your eating dairy you might as well eat meat as its the same thing, and if you want to know whats in dairy thats so bad email me at wgr88@yahoo.com cause what most folks don't know your eating close to road kill when your eating meat or dairy i would suggest you go to a fruit and vegie diet, now be carefull NOT to eat fruit AND vegitables AT THE SAME TIME, cause when you do the digestion process for vegies which are solid is different than fruits which is mostly water, and the two digestions processes DO NOT mix well in a lot of folks. so be a lable reader and GET RID or LIMIT salt and sodium cause salt makes the body hold water and that makes you fatter, God bless don't forget to PRAY before you eat, by the way free bible lessons learn how to feed the soul too www.itiswritten.com

Most of the time you can use Tofu, not a favorite of mine its spongelike if you have never had it. Try marinating tofu for atleast 2 hours prior to cooking. Aonther good substitute would be eeggplant. To prepare eggplant slice it and coat it in salt, this will pull out the bitterness. Then rinse off the salt and marinate if desired and grill, for best results use balsamic vinegar and oil, salt and pepper and grill. Please remember if you decide to cut meat out of your diet try to take supplements to make sure your body is getting all of the nutrients it needs. Enjoy!

Its really a matter of personal taste. I am not into the meaty taste but will eat soy jerky and tofurky italian sausage. Try to go to some of the vegetarian web sites to get some ideas of what will work for you.

I like mushrooms, tomatos, and black olives. Just think about a veggie that will go well with the recipe.
Tofu is good, but it is tricky, so read up on it beofre trying it. Firm tofu is my favorite!
