    Has anyone mentioned Turtle Island Tofurky products? Yeah, they're processed, but one of their sausages has a whopping 27 grams of protein. I don't eat them that often, but when I need a fast meal after getting home late at night from the gym I grill one up with some veggies. Throw in a little quinoa pasta with some nutritional yeast (or nooch as it's called) and you've got yourself a high-protein meal.

    Bump!

    No longer vegan (I like my Greek yogurt and honey too much) but still a veg head.

    Quinoa is also a great protein source.

    And, as you say, there are some "mock meats" that are just delicious and protein rich (and really quite low in calories) - redwood do a great range, as do Fry's and lots of others.

    There are even coconut yoghurts out there that are delish!

    For those in the East of Australia, I get a lot of my "mock meats" from www.crueltyfreeshop.com.au

    I know this is old but I found this thread and there has been a lot of vegan vegetarian protein questions lately and it seems very good advice here.
