How can I gain weight when I'm a vegetarian?

Hey guys. So I've always been naturally skinny as well as my parents we've never really been at the average weight for our height/age. I'm 21 year old female, 5'2 and weigh around 97-100 lbs varying on the day. Obviously this is underweight but I just can't seem to gain any. I'm also a vegetarian, and no I don't eat fish or chicken either. So what are some foods that could possibly help me with gaining weight? I'm not exactly a healthy eater either, I mean sure I'm a vegetarian but I do eat junk food and other fatty foods, I just can't keep any fat in my body.

    Try eating heavier foods, such as potatoes, rice, stews, and other foods that will make you gain water weight, after a while the carbs, calories and sodium will make the pounds stick. Drink juice with artificial sweeteners, and continue to eat high fat foods.
