Getting enough protein is easy!. I have never even heard of anyone in the western world not getting enough protein - that vegetarians don't get enough protein through their diet is just!.!.!.a myth, really!.
Almost all foods contain some protein - vegetables generally don't contain all 8 essential amino acids, meaning that you don't get complete protein from eating, say, carrots - but combine several different foods (for example, chickpeas and couscous) and you'll get complete protein!. As long as your diet is reasonably varied you'll get the amino acids / protein you need!.
Good vegetarian sources of protein: grains, nuts, seeds, beans, lentils, tofu and other soy products, Quorn!.!.!. (+ dairy products and eggs if you're not vegan)!. Tofu doesn't taste much - it tastes like whatever you're cooking it with! I prefer marinated tofu, or "tofu rosso", which is flavoured with tomato, olives!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

nuts, beans, dairy, eggs!. soya beans are common in vegetarians foods and are used to make things like quorn and tofu!. with tofu, it totally depends on how you can cook it and what you have it with!. you can do so many things with it, you can get silken tofu which isnt solid, and you can get tofu pieces that are spongey and are good to fry in a sauce!. i havnt tried tofu on its own but im sure it would taste bland, however i love frying it with sauces because it really soaks in the flavour and as you bite it its really juicy and i think one of the most flavorsome of foods - its totally down to the sauce!. its got a chewy texture when you fry - the first time i tried it it sort of reminded me of a kind of scrambled egg for some reason!. it doesnt really taste like any particular food it really is its own thing lol
do NOT take protein supplements like someone said!. vegetarians who take protein pills are just contradicting themselves!. if we believe that we are not meant to eat animals, then there is no need to take supplements!. we can get anything from plant based foods that we can get from meat!.
