Amen! For nostalgia I made Depression Era meatless recipes to remind Mom of her younger years. To your beans, grains 'n rice, add a little cheese and you have a complete protein. These were such a hit that I've continued to make them and have grown to prefer meatless menus. They actually improved our health: all the doctor's office tests have been 'normal' or better!
