I've been looking for a website I can point my girl to so that she can learn how to make good healthy meals. She trys and can follow directions but she knows nothing about nutrition.
There's a certain level of complexity in the recipes that I'm looking for. Something you don't see on sites like http://www.mealsforyou.com and http://www.epicurious.com ...that is, I'm looking for recipes that provide COMPLETE proteins, COMPLEX carbs and healthy fats.
What got me thinking about this is an article I read at Spike TV from Luke Cummo in the Ask the fighters section
For Luke's full opinion go to: http://www.spiketv.com/shows/series/ultimatefighter2/email/episode_4.jhtml
Any way, I read about completings protein by eating complimentary proteins years ago but at the time I was just getting started in nutrition and found it too complex - just going from pop tarts to tuna was hard enough at the time.
Are there any sites that have meal plans down to such a science - simple enough for my girl to follow?

Luke Cummo said:I like to get my protein from fish, chicken, turkey (organic), and vegetable sources like beans, legumes, and nuts. Did you know that combining brown rice and beans form a complete protein (meaning all the amino acids you need)?
