• Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave on high 1 minutes or set in warm oven 3-5 minutes.
• Press center of tortillas into the bowls, crimping edges as needed to fit.
• Brush edges with oil if desired.
• Place tray in oven and bake until edges begin to brown lightly, 12-15 minutes.
• Cool shells.
• If not using them immediately, tightly wrap them in a plastic bag.
• Mix together TVP and 7/8 Cups boiling water and let stand 5 minutes.
• Saute onion in skillet.
• Stir in tomato sauce, beans, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and TVP.
• Mix well.

10 MINUTE TVP TACOS (MODIFIED - HOT SINGLE GUY VERSION)

Steps:

• The taco seasoning ingredients are to be use if you don't have any pre-mixed taco seasoning, but if you do, then just omit them and add a bit more cayenne to taste. The taco seasoning ingredients will yield enough to make this recipe four times, so mix, measure 1/1/2 tsp and save the rest.
• Dump the water (adding a couple of teaspoons more water would be a good idea), diced onion, beef or vegetable boullion, tvp, spice and yeast flakes in a 1 quart sauce pan and heat on medium low heat, stirring continually until almost all the water is absorbed.
• Add the olive oil and sliced red peppers and onions, stirring continually and fry for a couple of minutes to just soften the onions.
• Add the salsa , stir to warm it up and remove from heat.
• This mix is enough to generously fill 2 10 inch flour tortillas.
• Cut the tomatoes in strips or dice them as a garnish, and sprinkle some cheese on top, then wrap it up and enjoy. You can also add shredded lettuce if you have some. I didn't.
