Animals get their protein from somewhere and cows don’t eat meat :)
People get very sensitive here about meat substitutes I’ve found. But they’re usually good for protein and some are pretty tasty. Linda McCartney etc.
On the supplement front, I started on Huel shakes which aren’t solely protein but are nutritionally complete so you can have as a healthy snack or instead of a whole meal.

I'm currently having a bit of a vegan/not-so-vegan crisis.
I've pretty much killed off all meat and dairy from my diet since I started living with my girlfriend, she has been vegan for a long time now and I was happy to try and make the change.
The problem: Since the switchover I am never not hungry, always craving more, which leads to me eating an excessive amount of carbs/junk and feel bloated constantly.
Along with this, I am lacking energy on the bike, to the point I can't be bothered riding, as I anticipate it's going to suck.
Do people recommend a protein supplement? Could this be why I'm hungry all the time!?
