Beans lack some of the essential amino acids to make it a complete protein. You can get those amino acids from grains or seeds.
This is why combinations like beans and rice, peanut butter on toast, and refried beans with corn bread are common. Of course, the easiest way to get a complete protein is to eat meat.

Why would you eat corn and beans together if you are a vegan?
A nutritionist wouldn't instruct a vegetarian to combine corn and beans in a meat because vegetarians don't eat meat. Instead, a nutritionist would instruct a vegetarian to combine corn and beans. When eaten in the same day, corn and beans combine to create a complete protein that is easily digestible. This is one of the many ways that vegetarians can get protein in their diet. In fact, proteins like these are simpler and easier for the human body to assimilate and use. With animal protein, the body must first break down the protein and convert it into a form that can be used before it can be processed by the body. So, it is much harder to metabolize animal protein. Beans and rice also make a complete protein as do lentils and barley. Beans, lentils, and peanuts can also be combined with any number of grains to form a complete protein. These foods don't have to be eaten at the same meal. If you eat some corn for lunch and then have beans at dinner, they will still join up to make protein.
