6 cups TVP
Water
Vegetable oil
Taco seasoning or homemade chili powder
2 to 4 Onions
1 cup Chopped tomatoes or tomato sauce
Wheat gluten (for veggie burger patties)

Soak the TVP in a minimal amount of water to make it flexible, squeezing out any excess water if you add too much.

For taco meat, Shepherd's Pie, Sloppy Joes, etc., run the TVP through a blender or food processor. Don't overdo it.

Add a eighth cup of vegetable oil and knead the TVP by hand until it is evenly coated.

Halfway through frying, add taco seasoning or homemade chili powder (see below). Adjust the amount to your preferred level of spiciness.

Add onions and chopped tomatoes or tomato sauce and fry until browned.

For veggie burger patties, add a bit of wheat gluten to hold everything together. Lacto-Ovos may want to add a bit of raw egg as a binder.

Fry or bake the patties to make them stay together.

Enjoy your homemade TVP meat substitute and veggie burger patties! I prefer the above vegimeat to Beyond Meat or any other commercial Vegimeat I have tried, And I know every ingredient in it.
