Peanut butter is great but also calorically dense, so something to watch out for.
I agree with the post warning about soy: I currently eat soy very infrequently but if you like it it is a decent source of protein.
I have bought the morningstar brand of veggiepatties with (I think) ~13g protein per serving, but have not tried them yet. If you have I'd be interested to hear how they taste.
I also have 3 eggs plus a few oz. cheese every morning for breakfast - some get tired of this really quick though. I guess I'm lucky that I like eggs.
If I remember anything else I'll let you know

I love the Morningstar "sausage" patties. They are delicious, easy to prepare (pan fry or even in your toaster oven!) and I often eat them all by themselves with coffee as a quick breakfast.
