A method of making a solid, combined protein and fruit product includes preparing a concentrated protein mixture including at least one concentrated protein, adding at least one concentrated fruit to the concentrated protein mixture to form a protein and fruit mixture, and removing water from the protein and fruit mixture to reach a predetermined solids level for the solid, combined protein and fruit product. In some embodiments, the concentrated protein mixture includes at least one hydrocolloid agent. A solid, combined protein and fruit product includes a concentrated protein and a concentrated fruit mixed with the concentrated protein. The concentrated protein in the solid, combined protein and fruit product is minimally denatured and the solid, combined protein and fruit product does not harden during the shelf life of the solid, combined protein and fruit product.

The invention provides seed and plants of broccoli hybrid PS05151639 and the parent lines thereof. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of broccoli hybrid PS05151639 and the parent lines thereof, and to methods for producing a broccoli plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another broccoli plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of such plants.

A method of manufacturing a combined protein and plant food product includes hydrating at least one pectin source to form a pectin hydrate, hydrating at least one protein source to form a protein hydrate, and mixing the pectin hydrate with the protein hydrate to form a combined hydrate. The method further includes adjusting, if necessary, the pH of the combined hydrate to the range of 3.7 to 4.4. The method also includes homogenizing the combined hydrate to form a homogenized hydrate and adding at least one edible plant source to the homogenized hydrate to form the combined protein and plant food product. A combined protein and plant food product includes at least one edible fruit or vegetable plant source and at least one protein source mixed with the edible fruit or vegetable plant source. The protein and plant product is in a fluid form for consumption directly from a pouch.
