Sloppy No-Joes

4 ½ OZ. PROTEIN, 1 VEGGIE, AND 1 CARB PER SERVING
SERVINGS: 4

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped

  • ½ bell pepper, diced

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 can no salt added tomato sauce *

  • 1 cup dry TVP (Texturized Veggie Protein) granules*

  • 1 tsp no-calorie baking sweetener *

  • Cayenne Pepper, to taste

  • Water, for sautéing

Instructions:

  1. Sauté onion and bell pepper in about 1 or 2 Tbl water until almost clear.

  2. Add garlic and sauté for a couple more minutes.

  3. Add tomato sauce, TVP, no-calorie baking sweetener, and cayenne to taste.

  4. Turn down and simmer 5 minutes until TVP is soft. Refrigerated TVP will already be soft, so you are just simmering to marry the flavors and thicken the sauce.
