Vegan or OvoVegan?: If one doesn't eat eggs, then egg white (which is all protein) is not an option. That means one would have to add items like beans, legumes (like peas), nuts (like cooked cashews or cooked peanuts), soy (like tofu), etc... To get more protein. However, as long as one eats a balanced vegetarian diet, his body can make muscle protein from the nutrients in the balanced variety of vegetables he eats.
