What kind of vegetables are you thinking of? I've always thought that most vegetables were relatively high on carbs and low in protein, though I know of exceptions.

I tried a search on nutritiondata.com, for vegetables highest in protein and total carbohydrate, and most of the top runners there had carb levels in grams a lot higher than protein levels in grams.

Not trying to be contrary, I'm truly curious I've been experimenting with gradually substituting some carbs with more fat and protein, and it sure works well for keeping my blood sugar stable.
