- 1 C water
- 1 no-meat chicken bullion cube
- 1 C Texturized Vegetable Protein (TVP)
- 2 T chickpea flour
- 1 egg (flax egg or the “real” thing)
- 1 tsp spice blend (I used a mix of paprika, red pepper, onion, garlic)
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees, or 475 convection.
- Heat water in medium bowl and stir in bouillon until dissolved. Add TVP, stir, and allow to stand for 5 mins.
- Pulse soaked TVP in food processor; you want larger pieces broken up, but not a puree. Add egg and flour and mix well. Season with your favorite spice blend.
- Form “nuggets” with the TVP mix (heaping 2T per nugget). Drop balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Place in oven and bake for 10 mins, until golden. Flip nuggets and bake for an additional 5 mins. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Makes 10 nuggets.
