I can't do soy either, Rache dear, and I'm a vegetarian. I get my protein from peanut butter (a little bit on a sandwich or crackers, only 1x per day or else it's too much fat for me), rice milk and rice cheese (I know the rice cheese has casein in it, but it's a calorie/nutrition thing for me), egg whites, and quinoa mainly. I can't really do beans, so I think you'll be fine since you can eat those! I don't know about the kosher aspect of getting some of this stuff, but Whole Foods has at least the rice milk and rice cheese, egg white substitutes (which is what I use, I have Eggology right now, it's great it keeps in the fridge for 3-4 months unlike the 7 days of the other stuff), and quinoa (I even have some quinoa and corn pasta right now that's not bad, it's a little grainy in texture, not as smooth as normal pasta, but I like it!).
Hope that helps!
