Un-Sloppy Joes (Vegan)
Contributed by Cathy
from Real Food for Real People
3 cups Spaghetti Sauce -- (no sugar added kind)
1 cup Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP)
(Meg also suggests tempeh)
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
1 teaspoon Vinegar
3 dashes Mrs. Dash seasoning
24 squares Saltine Crackers
Pour sauce into large sauce pan and start to cook at medium heat. Add all
ingredients except crackers and stir well. The TVP will take about 5-10
minutes to absorb the sauce. When it gets completely moistened and has taken
in most of the juice, crumble the crackers and add them to the pan.
These are great served on buns like traditional Sloppy Joes, or on split
rolls of your choice.
Jo's version:
I can sloppy joe sauce
enough veggie burgers to equal the can servings, cooked and crumbled.
Mix and serve.
Major chains sell frozen GardenBurgers, Morning Star burgers, and Green Giant
Burgers, as well as plain old veggie burger crumbles.
