http://www.mensfitness.co.uk/nutrition/supplements/1155/amino-acids-explained
Good article talking about needed proteins for working out and what not.
Esp BCAAs

links to a great nutrition source website
http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/dairy-and-egg-products/117/2     - 132
http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/beef-products/3574/2                  - 94
http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/fruits-and-fruit-juices/1846/2        - 62
http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/nut-and-seed-products/3138/2         - 55
* the number after the link is the amino acid quality index ... a measure of how complete the protein source is in quality

short, but great comparison of different amino acids by food


good chart for RDA of different amino acids

Keep in mind, these are RDA numbers. Lowest number needed to not get sick.
Your healthy needs will vary.
