    I mainly eat bread and pasta and stuff like that. If you're going to be one of "those" vegetarians that eat fish, then I'd recommend that too.

    Fruit & vegetables are a given of course.

    Fish, nuts and egg whites are the highest in protein I believe.


    Besides that I have no idea....... protein shakes perhaps? :)

    There are a lot of high-protein, vegetarian-friendly foods.

    Green, leafy vegetables, like spinach and seaweed; nuts; legumes such as beans, peas, and lentils, as rsynnott mentioned; tofu and soy products; sunflower seeds and grains and cereals like wheat and rice.
    Dairy products and eggs contain protein too.
