Found some more:
The protein in quinoa is considered to be a complete protein due to the presence of all 8 essential amino acids. Some types of wheat come close to matching quinoa's protein content, but grains such as barley, corn, and rice generally have less than half the protein of quinoa. Quinoa is 12% to 18% protein and four ounces a day, about 1/2-cup, will provide a childs protein needs for one day. The 6-7% fat of quinoa is relatively high when compared to other grains, but it boasts a low sodium content and also provides valuable starch and fiber. Quinoa also contains albumen, a protein that is found in egg whites, blood serum, and many plant and animal tissues. The seeds are gluten-free which makes this a nutritious and flavorful alternative grain for those with gluten sensitivity. Quinoa would be a worthy addition to anyone's diet, supplying variety as well as good nutrition. The seed is also excellent feed for birds and poultry and the plant itself is good forage for cattle.
And some other combos:
--corn tacos with beans
--whole wheat burrito with beans corn and rice.
--whole wheat bread with peanut butter, or other nut butter
--oatmeal with almonds or other nuts and/or seeds
--brown rice with tofu, beans, and/or almonds or cashews
--whole wheat pasta with beans or nuts/seeds
--hummus on a whole wheat pita, or whole grain bread
--lentil soup with a whole grain bread or muffin (or throw some rice in the soup too)
--make some oatmeal cookies and throw in any kind of nut
--make peanut butter cookies and throw in oatmeal
You can try to find combinations of these you tolerate. I really really like quinoa and I think most everyone can tolerate it. I hope you find some foods that don't make you hurt, but there are definitely ways to get around meat.
