Meg's Mishmosh Meal: Black Bean and TVP Taco Filling (Oil Free Vegan)
By: Meg Gray

Ingredients
- 1 cup onion, diced
- 1 cup mushroom, diced
- 1 cup cooked black beans
- 1 cup rehydrated TVP *see note
- 2 Tbsp chili powder
- 1 Tbsp ground cumin
Directions
- Add onion to pan at medium-high heat. Cook stirring occasionally until translucent.
- Add remaining ingredients to pan and mix thoroughly.
- Warm over medium-high heat 5-10. minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add splashes of water as needed to prevent sticking.
Notes
- To rehydrate TVP, simply add equal parts water to TVP and soak for 5-10 minutes until rehydrated (ex. 2 cups TVP, 2 cups water). Drain any excess liquid if needed. I prep a bunch at the beginning of the week to have on hand to add to multiple dishes throughout the week. Keep in mind that TVP expands when rehydrated.
Serving Suggestions
- on a bed of greens with rice, salsa, and guacamole
- in a taco, burrito, or wrap with your favourite veggies, nut-free nacho cheese (https://plantfitmeg.com/2021/02/24/recipe-vegan-nut-free-nacho-cheese/), and sriracha
- alongside greens or cauliflower rice with quinoa, topped with corn and shredded carrot
