I'm not a vegeterian by the way, just looking at ways to diversify my diet. Thanks!

Lentels are the most complete form of protein found anywhere, meat included. They are basically the perfect source. Also good are other legumes and nuts. Remember that soy products are a very good source as well! Make sure if you do not eat meat or dairy products to take a Vitamin B12 suppliment, as it is only available in meat products. I've never actually heard of mushrooms being a good source of protein, that is a new one to me if it is true.
Edit: saw that you were not a vegitarian, so no need for B12 suppliment.
