I would add to my list of essentials TVP granules (textured vegetable

protein.) For those who may not know, it's a dried soy product,

reconstituted with whatever liquid you wish. I throw it into any dish

that called for browned ground beef. It also comes in chunks that

would be appropriate for dishes that originally called for stew beef

sized pieces.

 

Here is a typical nutritional breakdown of a name brand, but I just buy

it out of the bulk bin at our co-op:

processed with wheat and upset my stomach horribly) and coffee (for the coffee

drinker in the house).
