Meat Alternate
The saylng-“the meal is
planned around the meat”-
does not mean you have no
meal if you don’t serve meat.
Certainly, meat is a good
protein food and excellent
basis for planning meals.
But, Penn State Extension
foods and nutrition
specialists remind you that
other foods such as dried
beans, dried peas and nuts
are also sources of protein.
For more buying and
serving information on dried
beans, dried peas and nuts,
and other foods necessary
