If your a vegeterian whats your diet for protien because all I eat for it is cheese.?

I love cheddar cheese and grate it over almost anything like pasta and vegetables. I just found out about snacks that I love are being tested on animals ={ so if you have any really great diets you can share such as what you eat from breakfast to dessert Id be really appriciative because I want nothing to do with animal tested foods.

I highly doubt all your protein is coming from cheese... for one, you eat pasta and vegetables, both of which have protein.

Vegetarians get protein from soybeans and soy foods (tofu, tvp, tempeh, edamame, faux meats,) beans and other legumes (lentils, peas, peanuts, chickpeas,) nuts, seeds, grains, fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, as well as eggs and dairy if you are still eating them. If you eat enough calores and you don't subsist on junk food, you are getting enough protein.

The rest of your question confuses me... Snacks that you love are being tested on animals? What are you snacking on? Mascara and shampoo? I have to assume you mean that snacks that you love are made with animal ingredients, but I'm not sure. Since you mentioned cheese, maybe you just found out that lots of cheeses are made with calf rennet? Anyway, you can get rennetless cheeses or cheeses made with vegetarian-friendly rennet. And, for the rest of your snacks, just read the ingredients. Don't eat gelatin or lard and be wary of "natural flavors" because those can be from animal or plant sources (Doritos, for example, use "natural flavors" derived from pork.)

Other than that, even if I gave you a rundown of a day in the life of my diet, that would just be an example. Get yourself a good book on vegetarian nutrition (there is one of those "Complete Idiot's Guide" books for vegetarian living - you'll find nutrition info and info about animal ingredients to avoid.)

Hmmm, I've never heard anything about plant foods being "tested" on animals. Sunflower seeds are just seeds - what is there to test? Anyway, here: http://www.petakids.com/candy.... PETA receommends both salsa AND sunflower seeds as vegan-friendly snacks. Report Abuse

Oh, and there's no difference whatsoever between cheeses made with animal rennet and cheeses made with vegetable rennet (if you weren't reading the label, you'd have no clue - it's just cheese.) Now vegan cheeses, made without milk, are much different. Report Abuse

You have fallen prey to THE PROTIEN MYTH.
Here is a super article by Dr. John McDougall on the subject

I eat nuts, nut butters, seeds, legumes especially Lentils, whole grains like Qunioa when I feel the need for "extra" protien otherwise I just aim for a balanced plant based diet.

Cheese is not a good substitute for meat because it has very little iron and much more fat than meat. Try beans, tofu, or fake meats if you like the taste of those. All of those replace both iron and protein. Beans taste good if you cook them right, so do a search for recipes. Nuts are also an excellent source of iron.

Nature has answers to all our daily needs.
For protein filled food, go for milk and milk products, legumes, sprouts, beans, soy and all most all green leafy vegetables..!

the cheese you eat is from a captive cow? are you kidding me. everyone wants to save the world if i were you i would get a job and buy all the farm animals in the world so you can save them and you can put them in a small pen and milk them several times a day to get the cheese you so desire.

There's protein in almost everything - whole grains, whole grain pasta, sprouted grain breads, beans, nuts, seeds, bean sprouts, even everyday veggies like broccoli. There's also tofu, seitan, tempeh, TVP and fake meat products from companies like BOCA and Morningstar (though convenient, I wouldn't recommend making them a staple - high in fat, sodium or otherwise way too processed to be healthy every single day).

It's hard to generalize what I eat every single day for you, I eat a lot of different things, I'm not a robot that does the same thing every day. But yesterday I had some oatmeal with frozen fruit tossed in for breakfast, I had two cups of soy milk before lunch, I had some pasta with sauce and tofu and veggies for lunch (leftover dinner from 2 days ago...), I had a handful of chips in the afternoon and a banana at some point... and dinner was spaghetti squash with meatless meatballs and sauce. I had soy ice cream right before bed (coconut craze flavor). I wouldn't put myself up on a pedestal as the healthiest eater ever, but that's what I ate yesterday.
