Recipe ideas for Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP)?

Cooking English • 2 days ago

Hey all,

I recently bought a bag of Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) as a recipe in a cookbook I have called for it for tacos. Funnily enough, the bag I got also had a recipe for tacos on it, and after following it I have to say, it was phenomenal. Pretty certain I got bang for my buck considering it only used 100 g or such of a 340 g bag that I got for $5.79, that’s only about 21 ¢ a taco putting aside other ingredients.

I checked the company site for other recipes using TVP, but there wasn’t a whole lot. Curious if anybody here has any go-to recipes they’d like to recommend or share, as I’d love to use this stuff more often.

I’m just commenting so I can come back and see if you get any good ideas. I used it in a green chile casserole with potatoes and “cheese” sauce recently and it tasted good, but got kind of mushy. It’s not my favorite vegan protein, but I still have most of a bag, so I also need suggestions.
