Lots of soy-based foods, especially if you are going vegan (no eggs, dairy, etc.). There are several good soy-derived protein powders which are very high in protein and low in carbs, but there's nothing like a well-prepared tofu dish!
Also, I did some research on creatine monohydrate and found that although it is found in animal-based foods, the supplements you buy in stores are not derived from animal sources -- they are synthesized from non-animal components.
Congratulations on your newly-found vegetarianism!
