Ask your friend what analogues she likes!. As someone else pointed out, though, Whole Foods is your friend, as they have the best selection of analogues and, believe it or not, usually the best prices (at least compared to the Harris Teeter near me)!. Amy's, Lightlife, and Gardenburger all have excellent convenience foods for vegetarians and vegans!.
But really, you don't need that much protein!. Too much protein can be detrimental to your bones and your kidneys!. It's the most pernicious myth out there, fomented by the meat and dairy industries to convince you to buy their products!. But until kwashiorkor becomes common in industrialized nations, I wouldn't worry about protein!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
