Nutritional yeast, legumes (soy, peas, beans, lentils), dairy (however caseine is not good for humans), and meat, tree nuts, whole grains especially Quinoa, some seaweeds and algaes such as Spirulina.
You have to get a wide variety of amino acids in order to benefit fully from the protein, or to make it a complete protein. So you should not just have beans, mix them with whole grain rice (not just brown rice) http://www.lundberg.com/products/rice_og_wehani.shtml
Quinoa has one of the most complete proteins you can find, it is high quality, and highly absorbable. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa
The other seldom heard of in the mainstream market is Spirulina.
"60% easy-to-digest vegetable protein without the fat and cholesterol of meat.
People are eating less meat and dairy protein because they want to lower fat, cholesterol, and chemicals in their diet. Spirulina is the highest protein food with all the essential amino acids and has only a few calories to keep your waistline where you want it. "
-from Spirulina.com
Have fun, I hope you find what you are looking for.

In addition to meat and eggs, beans are a good source of protein, but you want to make sure to combine them with other vegetables because otherwise the proteins won't be complete (beans and corn are a good combo). Beans also have a lot of fiber, something that meat does not offer.
