So, I am not officially vegan or vegetarian, but the fact is, about a year ago, I suddenly started getting really grossed out by animal protein. Even fish, which I have always adored. I do still rarely eat shellfish maybe, but that is it.I don't really enjoy it. I will eat some turkey on Thursday, but only out of observance.

As people are no doubt tired of hearing about, I ride my bike a lot. Maybe 160 miles a week. I have developed extreme soreness in my quads recently, and all the bike gurus have told me they think it is my protein situation. My question is, for vegans or vegetarians or anyone knowledgeable, how do I get protein when I eat zero meat anymore?
