VEGAN BREAKFAST SAUSAGE PATTIES WITH TVP

Steps:

• Pour boiling water (or vegetable broth; see notes) over TVP in a mixing bowl. Cover and allow to sit for 5 minutes to absorb.
• Add in all remaining ingredients and stir until well-combined. There should be no dry spots. Set in the fridge for about 10 minutes and the mixture will firm up slightly. The mixture should hold together like wet sand when you squeeze some of it in your palm, but it shouldn't stick to your hands. If it's too crumbly, you can add additional water a few teaspoons at a time. If it seems too wet, add additional flour 1 tbsp at a time.
• Shape into balls roughly 2″ in diameter. I usually get 9 medium-sized patties from this recipe. You can make them larger or smaller if you like; you'll just have to adjust the cook time accordingly.
• To pan-fry (recommended), heat 1-2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place balls in pan and flatten with the back of a spatula into patties. Fry for 3-5 minutes per side, until deep golden brown.
• You can also bake these if you prefer to cook oil-free, but the result will be less moist. I would recommend at least spraying them with a bit of olive oil. Preheat oven to 375°F. Place balls on a lined baking tray and press flat into patties. Bake for 20-25 minutes until edges and bottom of patties are slightly golden brown. (They won't brown as dramatically as the pan-fried ones.)

TVP BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Add salt and spices to water, bring to boil. Add TVP. Remove from heat, stir well, and allow to cool enough to mix with eggs. Beat egg with sugar*, add TVP mixture. Form patties - extra may be frozen. Fry up (about 3 minutes per side, till nicely browned) and enjoy!
• * I'm not sure what the sugar's for - the original recipe called for more sweetener than this and it came out quite sweet. I left in a little to help the sausage brown up, but I'm sure the recipe would be fine without it!

TVP BREAKFAST

Steps:

• Add all ingredients and bring to a boil over a low heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and cover.
• Depending on your preferences, you can reduce the heat to lower to a simmer for 5-10 more minutes or until the mush is very dense. You can cover and let sit for 5-10 minutes for a less thick, more chewy mush.
• The recipe works well in a rice cooker, or overnight on low in a crock pot for hot cereal when you first wake up.
• You may also put this into a pot overnight without cooking it, then heat it up on the stove or in the microwave.
