Slightly sweet, slightly spicy, this substitute for breakfast sausage faithfully recreates those tantalizing flavors that make a potato and veggie skillet into a hearty start to the day. This recipe was not tested by Bob’s Red Mill.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups TVP (Textured Vegetable Protein)
  • 2 tsp Vegetable Bouillon powder or paste
  • 1/2 tsp dried Sage
  • 1/2 tsp dried Rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp ground Nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp Liquid Smoke
  • 1/4 tsp powdered Cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp dried Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 Tbsp pure Maple Syrup
  • 2 cups Water

Directions

Combine all ingredients except TVP in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes to help rehydrate the spices and blend flavors.

In a heatproof bowl, pour the boiling broth mixture over the TVP and stir to combine. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes.

Notes

  • This mixture makes great breakfast tacos when mixed with a little salsa, or you can enjoy it as we do in a skillet with home-style potatoes, diced onions and green peppers, and salsa.
  • Makes 12 servings
