katewilson 8yr That chart is quite helpful! -
LesleyBL 8yr I was surprised to learn how much protein we actually need. It seems like much less than people actually eat. -
LezEngel 8yr So informative! Based on some of the products I see in the store (like special k with protein) you would think that it was not plentiful in so many whole foods. -
munchiemummy 8yr I had no idea until recently that peas had protein. I mean, who associates peas with protein? But it's just like other legumes in that respect. Total menu changer in our house! -
DietID_TeamDietitians 8yr Indeed!! I've started using dried or roasted peas as snacks- gives you a satisfying crunch and protein instead of just pain refined carb.
Charred broccolini is so simple, but full of flavor!
