I tried vegan, got hungry after a year and went back to sharecropper style.
Mostly veg, but meat when it appears.
I did learn that there is a big difference in protein contents, per type of veg.
Lentils are very high, something we didn't eat in Texas on a dirt farm.

There is a big difference in protein content of beans.
My best/most understandable chart, and what I used to place my order from is, open the catalog here and in all the chatter at the top, there will be a link to "Read our Labels", from that, I changed my order a little and was able to add the minerals and vitamins in higher amounts, than what I would have ordered before reading it.

I think I finely found a few bean stew recipes that my grandparents (father's side) use to make on Sunday's. I think I told you about the Sunday Bean Stew meals. Those were good. Will check out that link too. Thanks.
