I read recently that snow peas have more protein than some nuts and soy IIRC. I think it is more important to eat safely for IBS and then try to get protein and vitamins to a greater degree once stable. I can handle black beans and chick peas but not lentils, other beans or some grains. I do well with soy, nuts, seeds, and fake meat products. I still plan to try TVP and seitan and more tempeh.
A search for a chart of protein in foods could bring up some interesting food items that actually have protein. I eat fish and home raised egg whites so I have less issue with protein.

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
