First I want to say I know absolutely nothing about food or nutrition. So please write in terms I can understand.

I am 18 years old and I exercise in order to help in building muscle. My weight is 53 killograms. I am also a vegan (well actually a vegetarian since I do eat some milk and eggs, but little so most of my protein I get from plants). I know that in order to build muscle, I have to get enough protein.

I'm able to get protein from foods like beans, lentils, nuts, (I think) grains.

**However I'm really not sure how much daily protein is plenty enough to help build muscle. I'm also not sure how much vegan food I need to eat daily in order to get this amount of protein.**

Some numbers will be very helpful: 

1. What is the amount of protein I need to eat daily in order to help
build muscles?
2. What vegan foods can I eat that have plenty of protein, and how much
of these foods should I eat daily in order to build muscle?

In terms of amounts, I'm really not sure what I'm doing. So help will be great. Thanks
