TVP is one of my favourite vegan protein sources. Some reasons for this are that it is super high in protein (almost 50%), you can use it in many dishes, and it’s cheap!
You can even use it in breakfasts as it has no taste. Blend it into your smoothies for some extra proteins ????. Almost endless options with this amazing soy product.
In this recipe I used bulgur, but if you are gluten intolerant feel free to substitute that with quinoa.
That being said, let’s get into the recipe!
Thanks for your support, appreciate and love you ????????.
