I've been trying out Textured Vegetable Protein in these "burrito bowls" I do (literally just rice + beans + protein and some seasoning/sauce) and I don't think it's for me. Sawdusty vibes tbh.
Out of the three other meat alternatives I put in the title what would you recommend? I'm leaning towards tofu because it's somewhat familiar but the whole "pressing" situation seems annoying
Don’t buy liquid broth since it’s a scam. Better than bouillon is your friend. It comes as a paste in a jar and can last years in the fridge. You can make a broth out of it.
Seconding Better Than Bouillon. Vegetable, onion, and not-chicken flavors are all dope.
