for the Italian TVP Balls: 1 cup tvp 1 teaspoon vegetable bouillon powder pinch salt pinch garlic powder 1 tablespoon tamari or soy sauce 1 onion, chopped 1/2 cup dried bread crumbs 1 cup boiling water for the Italian tomato sauce: 1 can crushed tomatoes 1 onion, chopped 1-2 tablespoons oil pinch salt pinch garlic powder 1 teaspoon Italian herbs splash lemon juice splash Tabasco (optional) for the meal: 1 package frozen chopped spinach 1&1/2 cups rice 1-2 tablespoons oil to fry the tvp balls chopped black olives as garnish
Directions:
to prepare the Italian tvp balls: Place the cup of tvp in a medium large bowl. Add the seasonings and chopped onion. Add the boiling water and put a plate or lid on top and allow the tvp to swell. (5 minutes) As the tvp becomes soft add the bread crumbs and stir well to mix. It may need a bit more hot water. Stir again, and the mixture will become a sturdy mass. When the tvp mixture is cool enough to handle, form balls. We got about 20 balls about the size of golf balls or walnuts. to prepare the rice: Bring 3 cups of lightly salted water to boil. Add the rice and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is soft. When done, place a lid on top and set aside. to make the Italian tvp balls: Fry the Italian tvp balls in 1-2 tablespoons of oil. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Place the formed balls in the oil and fry lightly until golden brown. to make the tomato sauce: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a pan. Saute the chopped onion until glassy. Add the can of crushed tomatoes. Add the Italian seasonings. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper, and Tabasco as desired. In a small saucepan, heat the spinach. http://www.vegalicious.org/2011/12/21/italian-tvp-balls-with-spinach-on-rice
