Your a vegetarian and you probably do not need protein!. Did you know that your body can make its own amino acids from carbohydrates and other phytonutrients!? You just need to get the essential amino acids that the body can not make because we do not have the enzymes (and even more interesting is that based on genetics, you might not be able to process some of the other nonessential amino acids (protein units))!. You do not have to eat the essential amino acids at one meal (so the complete protein in a meal concept is false), but you do have to incorporate them into your meals every day (or every other day or so depending on how your body can utilizes and stores excess)!.
You should be looking at how can I get all the nutrients my body needs to thrive (not just survive)!. There are many other nutrients that are more important that are needed for the body's everyday maintainence!. Even if you do eat meat, you still need to eat all the other stuff to remain healthy!. And the big thing to remember with ingesting your nutrients is DIGESTION!! How am I able to optimally absorb the nutrients that I need!? You will need to gather info on that subject!. Like an interesting fact about spinach is that it contains oxalic acid that binds/chelates ions, like Calcium (Ca 2+) and Iron (Fe 2+)!. So if you eat alot of spinach, you might be calcium and iron deficient (once the ion is bound it is not absorbed and is excreted)!. Yet spinach contains alot of other good phytonutrients (antioxidants for example), but you should eat it in moderation (not make it your only source of vegetable for the day!)!.
But if you want to know good sources of protein, then beans, grains, and blue green algae are good sources of protein for vegans!. Vegetarians can get all the complete proteins from eggs and dairy products!. But again, protein is not a big deal in eating!. Look at the cow, who is a source of protein for some people, and notice what the cow eats to get big and strong! Grains and grass!Www@FoodAQ@Com
