When I was a dietary vegan (several years ago), I loved using the Boca Crumbles for things like burritos, in marinara, in chili mac.
Tofu dishes traditionally prepared (e.g. get a good Chinese cook book) are also pretty good.
Hemp, rice and pea protein powder are more plentiful now then when I was full-time vegan but I'd have used them when I was if they'd been available.
I also found that alternative grains/seeds/cereals like quinoa, barley, wheat berries were good as sides or pilafs or even cold salads.
Don't worry too much about the complimentary amino acid stuff - Lappe' has largely been proven wrong about those requirements. But if you've read at all you probably know that already. Just eat a lot of variety, especially veggies - don't become a bread-atarian or starch-atarian or grain-atarian.
I never cared much for wheat meat or seitan.
