The nutritional quality of “Turn Brown” weaning diet was assessed in this study. “Turn Brown” diet was prepared from the combination of equal proportions of ground maize, groundnut, soybean and guinea corn. The nutritional quality of “Turn Brown” was evaluated from its total nitrogen and protein contents, compared to the contents in Basal and Reference diets. Also, the diets were fed to rats for 10 days to assess the protein quality of the diets. The results showed that the total nitrogen and protein contents of Turn Brown were significantly higher (P<0.05), compared respectively, to the contents in reference and basal diets. Also, the nitrogen and protein intakes, carcass and faecal nitrogen were comparable with those obtained for rats on reference diet; but significantly higher (P<0.05) than those for rats on basal diet. The net protein utilization and biological value obtained for rats on “Turn Brown” were significantly higher (P<0.05) than those for rats on reference diet; while protein efficiency ratio, net protein retention and true digestibility obtained for rats on “Tom Brown” did not differ significantly (P>0.05) from those obtained for rats on reference diet. The weight change obtained for rats on “Tom Brown” was insignificantly higher (P>0.05) than that obtained for rats on reference diet. The results of this study showed that “Turn Brown” is generally of higher nutritional quality compared to those of other diets.







Important Note if Turn Brown is used for weaning:
“In Ghana, mothers conventionally fed their children complementary foods made with flour from cereals. A common mix made with roasted corn is known as Turn Brown. But the purely corn flour based Turn brown need to be modified to add proteins when used as weaning for infants. The Ghana Health Service and UNICEF began teaching women’s groups how to make a modified weaning food recipe during the 1980s: the new mix combined 4-parts cereal (maize) and 1-part legume (soybeans, cowpeas, and groundnuts). The legumes added protein crucial to infants’ health.”

Sausage and Peppers Pasta With Broccoli : Italian Dishes To Try

  Sausage and Peppers Pasta With Broccoli Time : 20 Minutes  When coupled with spaghetti, the traditional Italian flavor combination of sausage and peppers produces a filling and simple midweek supper. Broccoli is a great nutritious ingredient that adds texture and cooks quickly. If you prefer a more aggressive vegetable, though, you can choose between broccolini or broccoli rabe. Although this recipe calls for sweet Italian pork sausage, there's no need to feel constrained by it: Use chicken-apple sausage as a healthy alternative, spicy Italian sausage for more spice, or fresh chorizo or breakfast sausage to transform this meal into brunch. INGREDIENTS Yield: 4 servings ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 pound sweet Italian pork sausage, casings removed 1 pound broccoli, cut into 1½-inch florets (about 4 cups) 2 medium yellow bell peppers (12 ounces), cored, seeded and thinly sliced (about 2½ cups) 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced Kosher salt and pepper 1 pound rigatoni ½ cup grate...

How to prepare Shrimp Creole

Shrimp Creole Similar as gumbo, this shrimp and tomato stew begins with a roux that thickens and adds an unmistakable flavor (however many takes on shrimp Creole avoid the roux out and out).  Then, the "blessed trinity" of Creole cooking - onion, celery and ringer pepper - is stewed in the roux. You'll need to mix the lower part of the pot continually to keep the roux from staying and consuming, and try to keep a nearby eye: A consumed roux can't be saved.  Creole food savors spontaneous creation, so go ahead and add different veggies or an alternate protein, or preclude the hot sauce and add a teaspoon of apple juice vinegar in its place. This zesty stew is generally served over steamed white rice, but at the same time is scrumptious served over earthy colored rice or other entire grains, as quinoa. INGREDIENTS  FOR THE CREOLE SEASONING (OPTIONAL): 1   tablespoon smoked paprika 1   tablespoon chili powder 1   teaspoon onion powder 1   teaspoon garlic ...
