  • Most grains and legumes are "incomplete" proteins. [Exceptions]Complete proteins: ~ Soybeans ~ Quinoa ~ Chick peas, according to some studies ~ And possibly others...
  • In most contexts, incomplete proteins are still just as useful, because they form complete proteins when eaten within the same day.
    • Example: 20g protein from wheat and 20g protein from lentils does in fact make 40g complete protein.
