| Ingredients: | |||||
| 1 | medium onion, finely chopped | ||||
| 1/2 | bell pepper, diced | ||||
| 2 | garlic cloves, minced | ||||
| 1 can | no salt added tomato sauce | ||||
| 1 tsp | Whey Low© Gold or Splenda | ||||

| Water, for sautéing | |||||
| Directions: | |||||
|
Sauté onion and bell pepper in about 1 or 2 Tbl water until almost clear.
Add garlic and sauté for a couple more minutes. Add tomato sauce, TVP, Whey Low/Splenda brown sugar, and cayenne to taste. Turn down and simmer 5 minutes until TVP is soft. Refrigerated TVP will already be soft, so you are just simmering to marry the flavors & thicken the sauce. Serve on ½ whole wheat bun. ENJOY!!! * Tip: One tomato sauce brand that fits within the guideline is: Hunt's Tomato Sauce No Salt Added. One TVP brand that fit within the guidelines is: Bob's Red Mill Brand TVP. If there is a brand that you like better, please choose one that is lower in sodium. These are only options, not the only ones you can use. ∞ This recipe is not for everyday use and be sure to drink plenty of water to counteract the sodium content. ∞ Tip: If you wanted to make this non-vegetarian, you could use 4.5 oz cooked, ground turkey breast. |
