Getting Iron without red meat...

...or much of it. Because my H is a near-vegetarian, we rarely have any sort of red meat in our diet. I havent' worried a lot about it because I have a propensity for high cholesterol anyway. But I've recently come to believe that it creates a problem for me in terms of getting enough iron. Has anybody ever had to address this? I do take a multi that has iron....is that enough? I'm just not wise about minerals et al....any thoughts appreciated. Thanks.
