how do you measure protein?

If you're eating a varied diet, I would not be concerned.  If your whole diet consists of refried beans only, we may have a problem. I'd also be more concerned if you eat no complete protein/animal sources whatsoever.  Personally, I don't keep track of the trace amount of protein available in carbohydrate heavy foods (bread, tortillas, rice, noodles).  If you eat the incomplete proteins, you might need to eat more total grams than you would if you're throwing back whey protein isolate all day.

In general: If it's not a problem, don't make it into one.

I can't everything, but I don't really go for veggie sources much (eg beans) as they give me gas.

Also according to wikipedia protein combining is outdated http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_combining
