PROTEIN Protein provides 4 calories per gram. The primary function of protein is to build and repair body tissues. Keep meat and poultry portions small and lean. Include at least 8 oz. of cooked seafood per week. PROTEIN: Amino Acids Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. There are 22 amino acids. There are 9 essential amino acids. The body cannot make essential amino acids so they must be obtained from food. Complete proteins contain all 9 of the essential amino acids in the right ratio for our body to use. Incomplete proteins contain some, but not all, of the amino acids. PROTEIN: Complete Proteins Complete proteins contain all 9 of the essential amino acids in the right ratio for our body to use. Complete proteins come from animal food sources such as: meat, chicken, fish and milk products. Soy foods such as tofu, tempeh, soy nuts and edamame also contain complete protein. ● Quinoa is considered a complete protein, but is not as high in protein as animal sources or soy, so is not included as a protein food in MyPlate. PROTEIN: Incomplete Proteins Incomplete proteins contain some, but not all, of the amino acids. Incomplete proteins are from other plant sources Examples Include: grains, dried beans, nuts and seeds. Incomplete proteins can be combined to create a complementary protein. PROTEIN: Complementary Proteins Incomplete proteins can be combined to create a complementary protein. Complementary proteins are a grain combined with any nut, seed or legume. Examples Include: Beans with rice Peanut butter with whole wheat bread Hummus and Pita Bread Macaroni and Cheese PROTEIN: Lab- Fajitas This group will read the recipe out loud to the entire class and then relay the following information to the rest of the class. During the lab today: ● You need to get your ground beef cooking as quickly as possible. ● Remember to wash your produce. ● Only get sour cream if the people in your group want it. ● Any questions?
