complimentary proteins?

hey guys, havent posted on here regularly in well over a year, feel like an outsider lol. Still come back when i have a thirst for info though, like now.

I have started adding nuts into my diet over the past 2 months, having never really eaten them before. Been reading up on complimentary proteins on here, im guessing all nuts have the same qualities pretty much? Just see examples of eating dairy with peanuts to make a complete protein.

Milk + (ie)Cashew nuts would be a solid idea?

How about nuts immediately after a meal containing chicken?

Consider nuts mainly as a fat source. Add some kind of complete protein to them.

yeah, thats what i was getting at. Surely eating something 'complete' or 'complimentary' would make the protein in nuts better used by the body. Thats what all the other posts similar to this have stated

Agreed, but it's easier to have a readymade complete protein than make one with complimentary proteins imo.

You are talking about eating a lot of peanuts here... But I get what you are saying. eat fats or carbs in combination with other foods so that not only do you get the fat, but you also get the proteins. I have a list of things that should be eaten together but I can't find it.
