Have you ever heard of nutritional yeast? It's a flaky yeast powder that is grown on molasses, and it's full of B vitamins and protein.
I also agree that process of elimination might help you find the real culprits and maybe find some legumes/nuts that you are compatible with - maybe. Otherwise it's good to remember too that elephants get all of their protein they need from leafy greens - yeah, they spend more time eating than most of us, but it sounds like you have to take care with your food times regardless.
Have you also heard/tried tempeh? It's a soy product but it's fermented and totally different from tofu texture and flavor wise. If you're not wheat sensitive, it might also be worth it to try seitan as a filler food. I'd also recommend checking out the bulk sections of different grocery stores and trying the different types of grains - there are so many different types of grains with different textures/flavor profiles. It might help.
Another suggestion I'd have is make your own veggie burgers!!
