Good morning - just joined this forum, yesterday.
I decided to follow a mostly vegetarian diet about two years ago - I still eat fish, or chicken, occasionally, only because I worry about protein. I have never been able to figure out what an average serving of anything is. I am aware of protein combining, but if I am using beans for two meals a day, I would like to know what that means in terms of volume. Although I have a scale, I am not prepared to weigh my meals. It would make life easier to know that I need to consume a given volume - a cup, a pint - of pulses, each day, along with rice or something and then distribute that among daily meals/recipes, to know that I am getting enough protein.
Thanks in advance.
