How can i get sufficent protein and nutriends while a vegetarian?!
Question: eating meat is not really an option, because I'm Buddhist and I am starting to work meat out of my diet (except fish) thank you all for your suggestions. I am also a Karate student who is training for my black belt this year. whether i actually test for it or not remains to be seen, i still have to train for it. Thank you again!

Combine anything from group 1 with anything from one of the other 3 groups to make sure your body gets the amino acids that make up a complete protein.
GROUP #1 "Breads, Cereals, Grains"
Bread, Rice, Wholewheat products & Wholegrain cereals
these include: breakfast cereal, pasta, spaghetti, noodles, wheat products, flour products, etc.
Group # 2 "Legumes" Peas, Beans & Lentils:
including all dried beans & peas - aduki, kidney, runner, soya, chick peas, mushy peas, processed peas, baked beans, petit pois, beansprouts
Group # 3 "Vegetables"
Potatoes & other Vegetables including frozen vegetables
Group # 4 Nuts & Seeds
Walnuts, Cashews Peanuts, etc Sunflower, Sesame & other seeds
nuts, legumes, tofu, peanut butter, dairy products.
If you eat fish, then there's nothing to worry about insufficient protein intake...
But if you still want other options, you can eat:
-tofu
-nuts
they also have proteins that will help aid your protein needs as a vegetarian. Good Luck on your diet! =]
