Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) Chicken Crumbles

[Guest guest]

Hi there,

 

Been a life long vegetarian, but somehow I'm not very creative with

this stuff that I've had in a jar for quite some time now! It's dried

and is easily reconstituted by soaking in water, but I am open to

suggestions and fresh ideas of how to cook with it. It's chicken

flavored textured vegetable protein (TVP) that I bought at the local

health market from one of the bulk bins. I've noticed from using it

in the past that it doesn't contain much flavor on its own, but

possibly in the hands of the right cook, it could hold much potential

and actually become quite tasty. Usually what I do with the beef

flavored TVP is add to spaghetti sauce or taco sauce to lend texture.

Not sure what can be done with the chicken one. Thank you for

helping me out!

When you reconstitute it add poultry seasoning. Put it in your white

bean chili. That's what I do, I get a recipe from the groups chili

folder.
