Embarrassingly Easy Taco Filling
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
  • textured soy protein
  • cooking oil
  • soy sauce
  • taco seasoning
Directions:

This is way too easy and probably doesn't even belong here, but I have to submit it because my children, including the non-vegetarian neighborhood children who all somehow find a way to my house, just clamor for it (their parents are now asking for the recipe).

Take an iron skillet (using iron helps to darken the final product a bit which is aesthetically appealing) and heat a bit of oil in it. Fry the textured soy protein briefly while adding some soy sauce. I'm not sure why I do this first step, but maybe it adds a meatier quality to the dish.

Add water to cover and simmer, while mixing in the dry taco seasoning to taste. When most of the water has evaporated (leaving only a pleasant moistness), taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serve with heated crisp taco shells or soft tortillas. Chopped lettuce and some shredded vegan "cheddar cheese" makes a nice garnish.

Note: regarding the "non-vegetarian" children, they are now turning their moms and dads on to vegetarianism, I think (at least I'm getting a lot of phone calls). Pretty cool.
