2. at your regular grocery store i'd check out boca burgers, gardenburger brand meatless meatballs, and meatless riblets (<--the riblets are my dad's favorite and he's anything but a vegetarian!).

3. if you're on the go, LUNA bars are great to have as snack food...my personal favorite flavors are dulce de leche, nutz over chocolate, and pecan pie (you can get them at whole foods in the health/vitamin section or at some other grocery stores). also, nuts and soybeans are good "on the go" foods as well.

4. lastly, if you are looking for meals to make for dinner or what-not, try looking into soups...especially vegetarian chilis, which can be really high in protein if you use a variety of beans and boca's ground "beef".

Also check out www.beanslentils.com for cooking guides on how to cook dried lentils and beans.
And also look at www.vegweb.com, they have lots of information on recipes and dietary information on vegetarianism.

I wish you the best of luck in your vegetarian journey, its 5 years running for me and ive never been healthier.
