I’m trying to gain weight, but I’m having some trouble. I’m a vegetarian and I’m allergic to peanuts and tree-nuts. That limits the sources of protein I can eat.
I try to avoid eating a lot of dairy because of the environmental impact, but have less of a problem with eggs. However, I don’t think I can eat eggs all day without getting sick of them.
Are there other things I can eat that are important and will help me gain weight?

eggs, beans,
sneak some whey protien powder into your food.
you are self limiting and are going to have to choose at some point between your “spiritual” desire for some imagined environmental impact with dairy and your overall bulking goal.
- keep in mind that animals die in the harvesting of crops too, so if your reasons for bieng vegetarian are purely spiritual and not “taste” or “nutrition preference” based, then you are yanking your own cord and likely taking in a lot of jaded informaiton by people who just want to throw crap.
- i’m not crapping on vegetarians, just the people that toss out lies about meat/vegetarian diets that cause people to make a choice for the wrong reasons- and often end up leaving those selfsame people missing important aspects of nutrition.
with a severe nut allergy like you have, you are already limited and should seriously consider re-examining yoru diet-
eggs, however ARE an optimal source of protien.
