How do you maintain high protein in a vegetarian diet?

I’ve been a vegetarian for a few weeks and I seem to be losing weight quite rapidly. I’m using a lot of meat alternatives e.g. Quorn and I’m still eating as much as I would be doing if I wasn’t vegetarian but I’m still losing weight. I’m a 19 year old male and kind of need to put weight on and I don’t really want to turn to protein shakes. How do I do it? People always say things like ‘nuts’ have high protein, but how am i supposed to interpret them into a meal?

I personally avoid the fake meat – it’s really not that great for you.

Lentils are a huge staple of mine, and cheap and delicious! Huge source of protein, and easy to prepare.

Beans, milk and soy milks, eggs, grains, and quinoa are all other excellent sources of protein.

Here are some ways to incorporate these things into your diet:

Lentils: you can get them canned or dried (dried is very cheap). I prefer green lentils. If dried, boil them for 20-25 minutes until soft, drain. Canned lentils just need to be heated. I usually add cajun spice, curry, or cayenne pepper to mine and put them on a whole grain wrap with hummus and spinach. It’s SO good. Or I throw them in a stir fry or mix them with rice. You can get lentil soup too, delicious!

I eat black beans a lot too. You can mash some with salsa, add some lettuce and onion and spread on a wrap, then fold it in half and heat it on a frying pan until crispy on the outside. Soo good, especially if you add cheese. I also mix finely chopped garlic with olive oil drizzle it on toasted bread, and top with finely chopped tomato and black beans for a quick bruchetta. Or the odd time I make spaghetti I mix black beans into a sauce with garlic and onions and shredded carrots for a delicious hearty sauce.

Hummus is delicious in wraps, with crackers, or on bread, or even as a vegetable dip. Chickpeas can be put into a frying pan with tomato sauce or diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, and steamed spinach. Mix it all together and you have a great high protein dish.

Soy milk is pretty great if you like it. I get about 8 grams a day just from one cup of it, usually in oatmeal, cereal, or shakes. A GREAT recipe with soy milk is half a cup of organic vanilla soy milk, 1 avocado, one banana, 5 ice cubes, and a drop of vanilla blended together. It has the consistency and smooth taste of a milkshake, but completely healthy with protein and plenty of healthy fat.

Quinoa is technically a seed. You usually must rinse it a couple times before boiling it. Once boiled, I add a tablespoon of pure honey and eat it as I would oatmeal.

Nuts really don’t have that much protein. I sometimes have walnuts, almonds, or nut butter with bread. If you like salad add nuts or sunflower/flax/sesame seeds to it. It will improve the taste and protein content. Nutritional yeast is rich in protein and B12 for even a small amount of it. Add a tablespoon into most dinner-lunch type meals, such as salad or the bean recipes mentioned.

Peas have a considerable amount of protein and can be added to rice, stir fries, or just eaten as a side dish.

Hope you like something I wrote and enjoy going vegetarian!

(And don’t let the answers that bash meat alternative and vegetarianism fool you. It is pure ignorance. I’ve read a plethora of books, watched many health documentaries, and examined nutrition content and vegan studies from many credible source. A well planned vegetarian diet is extremely healthy, and many professional athletes have this kind of lifestyle. Well informed vegetarians benefit from decrease of heart attack and cancer risks, low cholesterol, lower rates of obesity, increased energy, and many other bonuses. Do the research yourself if these people discourage you, and you will discover yourself that they are very misinformed, I assure you :)
