Equipment

  • Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1¼ cups dry TVP
  • 2½ cups vegetable broth boiled
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 medium purple onion sliced
  • 2 medium garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp pink salt
  • ½ tsp toasted, ground cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste

Instructions
 

  • Add the dry TVP to the boiling water. Let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb the liquid.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, add in the oil.
  • Once hot, add in onions and garlic.
  • Stir for a few minutes, until the onions are softened.
  • Add in the remaining ingredients (except the broth and TVP), stirring to combine in the skillet.
  • Stir in the broth-TVP mixture, cooking until the liquid is absorbed.
