Complementary foods are food other than breast milk introduced to infant to provide nutrient , complementary feeding period typically cover the period from 6-24months of age .the study was conducted to evaluate the quality of an enriched rice based complementary food .The feeds were formulated using Rice ,soybean ,sesame seed ,banana and carrot using different ratio mixing .Proximate ,viscosity of the formulations on guinea pigs were determined.
Finding revealed that protein content of the formulations steadily increased sample A with 22.5%, sample B with 23.4% sample C with 21.4% and sample D 6.7% as the proportion of the rice is reduce and the viscosity of the formulations increased as the ratio of rice increase.
From 5mPa.s for sample A, 7 mPa.s for sample B, 12 mPa.s for sample Ca nd 27 mPa.s for sample D. On growth efficacy the percentage change in body weight is higher in group A with 63%,group B with 45%,group C with 24% and group D with 32% which shows that group A fed with sample A and group B fed with sample B had the highest change in body weight and can be used effectively for complementary feeding particularly that the raw materials required are not expensive and are available .

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Complementary foods are food other than breast milk introduced to infant to provide nutrient (Kleinman, 2004). Complementary feeding is defined as the process starting when breast milk alone is no longer sufficient to meet the nutritional requirement of infant, and therefore other foods and liquids are needed, along with breast milk . The transition from exclusive breast feeding to family food referred to as complementary feeding (WHO, 2003).
Complementary feeding period typically covers the period from 6-24 months of age, even though breast feeding may continue beyond 2years. It is a very vulnerable period, it is the time when malnutrition start in many infants, contributing significantly to the high prevalence of malnutrition in children under five years of age world-Wide (UNICEF 2005).
According to WHO, 2005 it is estimated that 2 out 5 children are stunted in low income countries. Complementary feeding should be timely, meaning that all infants should start receiving foods in addition to breast milk from 4-6 months on wards. It should be adequate meaning that the complementary foods should be given in the right amounts, frequency, consistency and using variety foods to cover the nutritional needs of the growing child while maintaining breast feeding (WHO 2005).
Food should be prepared and given in a safe manner, meaning that measures are taken to minimize the risk of contamination with pathogens and they should be given in a way that is appropriate texture for the age of the child. The feeding should be initially 2-3 times a day between 4-8 months (Murel 2001) increasing to 3-4 times day between 9-11 months and 12-24 months.
In most developing countries, complementary diet are derived mainly from locally staples such as cereals and tubers with animal protein used as supplements. However, since animal protein are expensive, attempts have been made to identify alternative source of protein, especially from plant(Ihekoleonye et al 1985).
In Nigeria where cereals are staple food, mothers usually use rice, maize, sorghum or millet in children’s home made foods. The protein of cereals revealed that they are deficient in lysine and tryptophan, but provide adequate amounts of methionine and cysteine which are sulphur-containing amino acid (Ijarotimi et al 2006).
The amino acid profile of leguminous seeds is considered a rich source of lysine but is quite deficient in methionine and cysteine (Iwe 2003) so, combining cereals and leguminous seeds can increase the quality of protein in children’s food (Jood et al 2001).
The use of legume and oil seed in addition to solving the problem of malnutrition associated with the consumption of cereal products like ‘Ogi’, ‘akamu’, ‘eko’ (Kunjenlola et al 2005).
The problems inherent in the traditional west African complementary foods and feeding practice predispose the infant to malnutrition, growth retardation, infection, and  high mortality (Guiro et al 2001)rightly observed that one major cause of malnutrition is complementation of breast milk with cereal gruels that are of low energy density.
Thus, protein energy malnutrition is a common problem among infants and children in the poor socio economic groups of developing countries (Gopalon et al 1973). Severe protein energy malnutrition results in kwashiorkor and marasmus. The inadequate growth or stunting produced as a results of poor complementation is best described as hidden malnutrition. This is because the child may appear healthy while being severely malnourished.
Rice is used as a based of these complementary food because it is relatively bland in taste so it will be more acceptable to babies, rice can be mix to a fairly thin texture, which is believe to be ideal for babies making the transition from an all – liquid diet to a more solid one, rice also provide necessary iron most rice are fortified with iron to boost babies levels of this essential dietary element at a time when they become depleted more so rice s believed to be relatively non allergenic making it safer option as a first food and finally rice is easy to digest and have low content of phytate (Best baby food. com).
1.1Â General Objective/Aim
The aim of the study is to produce, analyzed nutritional quality and to determine the growth efficacy of rice based complementary food.
