You don't even have to be a vegetarian to enjoy them.

Vegetarian eating isn't for everyone, but if you're trying to eat less meat OR you're going meatless for the long haul, getting enough protein is super important.

Of course, how much protein you need differs from person to person depending on your size, activity level, and whatever your health and fitness goals might be.
