Default Alternate ways to getting necessary protein

I know how important proteins are to muscle-building. Having said that, I cant stand to make myself consume a protein shake. The powder is absolutely revolting and so chalky no matter what you mix it with. YUCK! I know I could sit down and eat a heavy protein meal but I'm not always in the mood to prepare and/or eat one after a big workout. (Having said that, how long is too long to consume protein after your workout for it to really have an impact? I live about 20 minutes away from my gym. Add to that the time it takes to cook a meal.) Are there any good, natural alternatives to powders?? Also, how would you rate a peanut butter-banana sandwich on whole wheat bread as a post-workout protein snack? That's usually my go-to and I've never really taken the time to find out if it's a good one.

Yup, a blender, some steak and beer. Grill the steak, slice it up a bit, toss it in the blender, add some beer and have a steak & beer shake. That's a man-style protein dinner!
