Unless you're a new lifter, completely blessed with genetics, or on the gas, you will never put on 10 lbs of muscle in a year. But good luck to you
You won't do it if you don't believe you can do it. Sometimes experienced lifters have no idea what they're doing, so they fall into the group of those who could gain +8 pounds of muscle in a year.
@OP: if you believe you're low on protein intake, you probably are low on it. How strict is your vegetarianism? Are you OK with taking creatine? It would help you put on some muscle. And no offense, but if you're a vegetarian and you don't know much about nutrition, it's time to read up and understand what you need to stay healthy. The same goes for the vast majority of non-vegetarians, but as a vegetarian, there are special considerations you will need to address. Ultimately, if you do it right, you can achieve optimal health. But please start by learning more about nutrition in order to help yourself out
