I'm a little confused, you write "vegetarian" but did you mean "vegan"?

"The few vegetarian dishes ... are often not nearly as good as yogurt, meat, eggs, or [...] whey protein"

Yogurt, eggs and whey protein are vegetarian (but not vegan). Vegetarian is extremely easy (I eat 95% vegetarian because it's cheaper and easier), vegan is very difficult and requires significant sacrifices.

Or maybe I misunderstood your sentence in some way.

I don't mean to be pedantic, but it seems to me that the discussion is going to be difficult if vegan and vegetarian are getting mixed up.

Hmm I don't know that I have to be either strictly, I'm thinking about cutting down my intake mostly of meat but also things like eggs that can carry through higher concentrations. Plus if there is some good complete plant protein that tastes fine, I hope maybe it's cheaper (eating lots of protein is expensive LOL)

I really like canned black beans. They have a decent amount of protein and fiber, they taste good, they're pretty cheap, and you just have to heat them up. Lentils are also good, but they take a while to cook. I use the white rice setting on the rice cooker.

Few if any plant based proteins are complete proteins. theyre always missing some amino acids or another.

Even this list of vegan complete proteins are mixtures of multiple foods

I eat a good bit of those but more for health than protein and because they're cheap, but not complete protein and about 1/2 protein per calorie of chicken breast.
