Sport Alternate Protein Sources?

Sport Fitness
I would like to get some ideas on alternate protein sources other than the usual chicken breast, tuna, steak or shakes. I love meat but getting tired of the same old, same old 5-6 times daily. Just looking for some new ideas.
 
Eggs, cottage cheese, turkey, cheese, serial, oatmeal, milk, peanut butter, ect...
 
complete protein sources-

Bison
Fresh Turkey (also understand the amazing things they can do with turkey, turkey bacon, turkey pepperoni, turkey burgers and seriously it tastes awesome. of course limit yourself to pre-packaged anything, however it can be a nice treat put in that ins;t to bad for you here and there)
Mahi Mahi
Crab(its like 100% protein, I make whole grain crusted baked crab cakes, they are yummy)
Salmon
Eggs/Egg Whites-Now i pay the extra 50 cents and buy the free range omega 3 eggs that only have 1 gram of sat fat and the rest is poly/mono. So some days I use two whole eggs per 2 egg whites and get in good fats that way and yeah taste better as well.

The key I have found to not getting meat burned out is really varying how i prepare it. There is no way I could stick to all this if I didn't really love what I am eating and man do I. Look at some recipes and find ways to alter it to make it more healthy.
-Spice up a 96% lean hamburger with some egg whites,chili pepper, mesquite and worscheter sauce.
-Glaze your chicken in a low sodium/no fat hot wing sauce. Its easy as hell to make or buy.
-Throw some chopped chicken,tomato,and onion into an egg omelette.

Hope this helps.
 
Beans are a good alternative, also try Barilla Plus Pasta. It is whole wheat pasta that has 17g of protein, 2g fat, 7g fiber and 360mg of omega 3s per 1 cup serving.
 
It may be the blonde in me;) but missing why me posting bison is so funny. Then it hit me it may be harder to get buffalo meat where you are, they have it in plenty of stores around here. I am personally not a fan of buffalo, but many people I know love buffalo burgers. They are much leaner than regular cow beef products and full of protein.
 
i'd suggest eatin egg

egg whites are pretty good in protein and low in fat
