Answers:
Nuts, spinach and depends on whether or not you wish to eat eggs!. After all they're not actually meat, but maybe you're leaning more towards vegan and won't eat it because it's an animal product!. But anyway, eat nuts and spinach!. Spinach has lots of protein, so eat plenty of that!. For what nuts to eat: http://www!.highproteinfoods!.net/nuts-see!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Protein is found very easily in plant foods!.
http://www!.veganhealth!.org/articles/prot!.!.!.

Bread, pasta, cereal, rice, beans, peas, lentils, nuts, seeds, fruits and veggies can easily offer everything that you need except B12!.

All vegetarians should take a B12 supplement regularly since most people eat meat, dairy AND fortified cereals yet still have a B12 status that is lower than recommended!.

It may help you if you see proof that vegetarian people have the same potential as anyone else!.

If you need meat or dairy during any stage of your life or to live any certain lifestyle, why does the American Dietetic Association say otherwise!?

my friend is a vegetarian, and she just takes special vitamins that contain a lot of protein, calcium, and iron!.
because you're also allergic to dairy, you'll also need the calcium, not just protein!.

before you do anything, consult a dietitian, or your gp (who will most likely get you to go to a dietitian)



god bless,
i hope this helps!Www@FoodAQ@Com
