MYTH: "Vegetarians get little protein."

FACT: Plant foods offer abundant protein. Vegetables are around 23% protein on average, beans 28%, grains 13%, and even fruit has 5.5%. For comparison, human breast milk is only 5% (designed for the time in our lives when our protein needs are as high as they'll ever be). The US Recommended Daily Allowance is 8%, and the World Health Organization recommends 4.5%.

MYTH: "Beans are a good source of protein."

FACT: There is no such thing as a special "source of protein" because all foods -- even plants -- have plentiful protein. You might as well say "Food is a good source of protein". In any event, beans (28%) don't average much more protein per calorie than common vegetables (23%).

Answer 3

If you're lookng for vegetable alternatives, all nuts and seeds are high in protein; peanut butter is very nutritious. Sunflower and sesame seeds are good, also. Tofu is soy bean curd, and very high in protein; it's often used as a meat substitute. So are rice and bean combinations ( rice needs beans to complete the protein strand, so it's best to serve them together).

Answer 4

Chestnuts, pistachios, almonds (all relatively low fat for nuts and all great in moderation). Quinoa. Yogurt, especially soy yogurts. Milk. Luna bars, Nugo bars (or any other soy protein-based bars).

Ultimately, what's "healthy" for you depends on the rest of your diet, though. If you eat low fat diet and don't have a cholesterol prob., then cheese and eggs could be great additions, too.
