Iron can come from a variety of sources, many of which are vegetarian friendly. Vegetables, especially dark leafy green, contain iron. Many grains (breads, cereals) are fortified to also contain iron. Vegetarians also often take supplements to ensure that they are getting enough of all of the vitamins and minerals that the need.
You can recieve protein and iron from many other things, these include beans, rice, nuts, whole grains, etc.
These are only a few of the many things you can eat instead of meat to recieve iron and protein.
Nearly all vegetables, beans, grains, nuts, and seeds contain some, and often plenty, of protein with varying amino acid profiles. Vegans who eat varied diets containing vegetables, beans, grains, nuts, and seeds rarely have any difficulty getting enough protein as long as their diet contains enough calories to maintain their weight. All the essential and nonessential amino acids are present in these foods in amounts that meet or exceed your needs, and in a ratio that is kind to your body.
Legumes, leafy green vegetables, blackstrap molasses, nuts, dried fruits, and seeds are all good sources of iron. Vegan diets also tend to be high in vitamin C, which increases the absorption of iron by about six-fold. Vegans do not have a higher rate of iron deficiency than meat-eaters.
Iron is found in abundance in many plants especially in leafy greens like spinach. In fact spinach rivals beef in iron content by serving.

Hidden meat products are in apparently vegetarian products--for example Yoplait yogurt has gelatin in it which is derived from animal tissue. Hot Cheetos probably has pork flavoring (except the giant puffs). Also, vegetarians need to be careful not to overdo the simple carbohydrates (easy on the ice cream!) and get enough protein, iron, and vitamin B12.

Yes. Vegetarians have an RDA for iron 1.8 times that for non-vegetarians. Specifically, vegetarian women 19-50 years old need 32mg/day compared to the 18mg/day RDA for non-vegetarian women of the same age range.
Vegetarians will have problems with calcium, iron, and protein intake if they are not careful. The Vegetarian Research Group explains this in detail on their site. They suggest eating specific foods like bagels, broccoli, rice, spinach, and certain nuts like almonds to assure they have enough protein in their diet.
