Protein foods are made of amino acids. Our bodies can make 11 of them but 9 of them must be supplied by the diet. Meat, poultry, fish, dairy and soy have all 9 of them. Soy makes a good plant source of protein. Other foods eaten in combination can give you all nine and can make a good source of protein: beans and tortilla

beans and bread

peanutbutter and bread

beans and corn And there are other foods made from plants called textrured vegetable proteins. They are processed but they make a good source of protein.
