I will try the taco style lentils and for the beef flavor I will use

vegetable broth with a hint of gravy master or kitchen bouquet and a

dash of soy sauce. Sounds like a good recipe.

HillBillyHousewife..*LOL* I need to peer into that web address.

This is a good idea! I knew someone out there would have some kind of

a substitute for the beef bouillon.

 

As for the website, I found out about this through a homeschooling

forum I belong too. I had never heard about it until a couple weeks

ago. I also laughed when the lady posted the website address!! :0)

 

Hope you enjoy the recipe! I thought it was a REALLY great substitute

for hamburger meat in taco style dishes!!
