Are there any good vegan protein options that aren’t a legume? I’m allergic and it’s the biggest reason I haven’t considered switching. Every time I look up “vegan protein options” for ingredients and stuff, it’s always only peanuts, lentils, beans, peas, that sort of thing.

    Mushrooms, nuts and seeds is what I can still think of.

    Lots of vegans do enjoy nutritional yeast. You don't typically eat a huge amount of it, but it is around 50% protein.

    There's nut butters which can be used quite nicely in cooking. Unfortunately, they do tend to be rather expensive.

    Chia seeds are also perhaps worth highlighting. If you soak them in water for long enough, they basically turn into pudding (as in, "chia pudding" is an actual dish). Well, and they also have a fairly neutral taste, so that gives them lots of flexibility in cooking, baking, cereal etc..
