How about meal replacement bars or protein bars?
Tuna is probably my main source.
I also eat fat free cottage cheese and plain organic yoghurt. To improve the taste i slice some grapes and put them in the yoghurt. The yoghurt is also a great source of slow releasing carbohydrates. It's actually lower than oatmeal on the Glycemic Index. Per 400g tub, i think there is something like 28g of protein which is good.
You only need about 150-170 grams of protein to sufficeintly bulk. I know most bodybuilding magazines go over the top and recommend 250-300....but it's really not necessary.
For your protein intake (other than meat) i'd suggest: Eggs, Yoghurt, Cottage Cheese, Tuna, Salmon, protein bars and shakes
