@cocosmom : I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come off as smug. To me, beans and grains can be used in so many different ways. I knew a mom once, who firmly believed feeding her kids potatoes with green beans made a complete protein. Sorry, this isn't how it works.
I am not a huge fan of all the "fake" meats. I do like Morning Star Farms "sausage" patties, and I was adding TVP to foods 40 years ago. Falafel is one of my favorite foods. I also love tabouli made with quinoa instead of bulgur.
I do eat some meat, but there have been a few times when my husband has asked if we need to go grocery shopping. Why? "Well, we haven't had meat in a couple of weeks, I wondered if you need some." If it was up to us to produce our own meat, we would never eat meat again.
