Eating habit puzzler

[lph]

How about beans, peas, lentils, aren't they pretty high in protein? There a zillion kinds, so you can get quite creative.

I have a similar problem. I'd like to eat more vegetarian food, like once or twice a week, but my dh can't eat dairy, and my son will only eat beans or peas when forced to. Vegetarian recipes seem to be pretty heavy on dairy and beans...

eta: nuts, you can make a whole lot of stuff with chopped nuts. Healthy fat and protein. Someone here is bound to know more.
