I'm not a vegetarian, but here are a few ideas.

Soft fish, Tilapia, salmon, is always good. Try fat free vegetarian refried Beans. Mix in some salsa to loosen them up. A bit of FF cheese and sour cream, very good, filling and high in Protein. Mashed caulifower is always good. Cook in veggie stock and mash with a little FF sour cream. Grill a portabello mushroom, top with a slice of Tomato, some basil and some mozzerella cheese and broil til melted. Try tuna mixed with mashed avocado. Make vegetarian chili with black Beans (high in protein) and lots of tomatoes.

You may also want to get unflavored Protein powder to add to meals to get your Protein in.

I love Greek yogurt, roccata cheese and cottage cheese which are high in Protein. If you are hungry, try to get all your protein in. It should help with the hunger,

i'm lacto ovo vegetarian - no meat, poultry or sea food but i eat dairy. For my mushies i did vegetarian refried Beans (low fat cheese and sour cream on it - maybe salsa) - light mashed potatoes/butter, light yogurt, Protein Shakes (I do EAS AdvantEdge Carb control - strawberry, vanilla and light chocolate), morning star fake chicken strips (the grilled kind you would put in a stir fry - i ate a ton of them during the soft food time after surgery). I would dip the strips in low fat sour cream yum!

Wild alaskan smoked salmon is great for Protein and low fat/calories.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
