Today we're going to talk about the my plate food guide.

"My plate" is the current food guide here in the United States.

The my plate is broken into five sections the dairy section, the

grains section, the protein section, the vegetables section

We also get protein from nuts and beans too.

again you ask how much is an ounce of protein?

Well the answer is about a table spoon of peanut butter or one

Now that we all know approximately how much of

We've got fish going into our protein section, rice that's

going to be our grains, and some green beans and cauliflower for

our vegetables, and some pears for our fruit.

As you can see we have 20% protein, 30% grains, 20% fruits,
