HOMEMADE TVP CRUMBLES
I love this recipe because now I can make and freeze these crumbles and never have to read the labels again to see if there is something in it that I can't eat. It is flexible and can be spiced for any type of dish that you would make using a hamburger substitute. Egg could be added to make patties. Sprinkled on salad is wonderful. Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose high-quality TVP: Look for TVP that is made from whole soybeans and has a high protein content. Avoid TVP that contains fillers or additives.
- Soak the TVP before using: Soaking the TVP in hot water or broth helps to rehydrate it and make it more tender. You can also soak the TVP in a marinade to add flavor.
- Use a variety of seasonings: TVP is a blank canvas for flavors, so feel free to experiment with different seasonings. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and cumin.
- Cook the TVP until it is browned: Browning the TVP gives it a more meaty flavor and texture. You can cook the TVP in a skillet, in the oven, or in a slow cooker.
- Add the TVP to your favorite recipes: TVP can be used in a variety of recipes, including tacos, burritos, pasta dishes, and soups. It can also be used as a meat substitute in casseroles, stews, and chili.

Homemade TVP crumbles are a versatile and delicious meat alternative that can be used in a variety of recipes. They are a good source of protein and fiber, and they are also low in fat and calories.
