How do i get protein on a vegan diet?

Animal Fat & Protein: I encourage families to include animal fat and protein in their diet, as traditional societies around the world. A well-balanced (fat/protein/carbs) nutritionally packed vegan/vegetarian diet is possible, but less probable - especially for children. http://getrealforkids.com/resources/real-food/balanced-meals-snacks/1987-secrets-of-a-balanced-meal#.

Got Tofu?: The soy based protein sources are good, but other beans, are great too. Chick peas in felafel and hummus are a great staple. Lentils and rice form the basis of the traditional nepali diet. Nuts like almonds have some protein, as do the grains. Quinoa is a super-food. Many alternatives exist to enslaving and killing other species for food, poisoning the environment and ruining our own health.
