need a good tvp taco recipe!!

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
tacos are one of the few meals that my whole family will eat. DH likes the fake meat filling, but I don't like all the additives. I know TVP isn't that much better, but DH won't eat the lentil filling.. does anyone have a good taco recipe that uses TVP?

thanks!

I just rehydrate the TVP with veggie broth & add taco seasoning. Not fancy, but it works.

does he like black beans? Small red and black beans and rice make a GREAT taco filling. Just saute up an onion, red or green pepper, some garlic, add cumin, chili powder, coriander or whatever spices you do in your tacos, a pinch of brown sugar and some kind of tomato sauce. Add your beans simmer 10 minutes to meld flavors, add the rice or even quinoa or something (or you can leave it out and just do beans).

Whenever I make tacos I do two pans side by side, starting with the same ingredients in each and then adding my omni family ingredients in one, and beans in mine, though I still add beans to their too....

not really on the beans.. i wouldn't even go as far to describe him as an omnivore, so if i get him to eat something vegan it has to be pretty much identical to a meat dish
