vegetable proteins are incomplete proteins because they dont have all of the essential amino acids. but you can add two incomplete proteins together and make a complete one! Grain group: barley, bulgur, cornmeal, oats, buckwheat, rice, pasta, rye, wheat. Legume group: beans,lentils, dried peas, peanuts, chickpeas, soy products. Nuts/Seeds group: sesame, sunflower, walnut, cashew, pumpkin, other nuts. combine two from two separate groups and you have a complete protein! Rice and beans! Peanut butter on whole wheat! Rice cake and peanut butter! Yogurt and granola! Bean and cheese burrito! Oatmeal with milk! you can add a small amount of meat protein to any of these and of course that will make it a complete protein too. Your body gets all 9 essential amino acids. Amino acids cannot be made by your body so you must get them from food sources.
