This is the recipe from "The New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook". SO EASY!!! My kids have always loved this, they are 15 and 11. Originally it called for 3TBS oil, I use 2, but I'm sure you could use less. A little indulgence doesn't hurt. I use olive oil because I LOVE it.

SERVES 8 , 5 cups (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 large onion, chopped
1 large green pepper, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups boiling water
2 1/2 cups tomato sauce
1-2 tablespoon chili powder
1 pinch pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon mustard
1 tablespoon sugar (I use sucanat)
1 1/2 cups dry textured vegetable protein

Directions

1
Saute onion and green pepper in oil.
2
Add remaining ingredients and simmer together for 20 minutes.

These were ok. I've never had a Manwich, so I can't say how similar the taste is. This recipe is cheap, easy, and makes tons! All good things in my book

I tasted this as it was in the final process of simmering, and it didn't taste right to me. I was looking for the familiar 'manwich' tasting sloppy joe, and something seemed missing. I added about .5 teaspoon garlic powder and 3 generous squirts of ketchup and that helped out a lot. Good basic recipe using tvp, but I would substitute ketchup for half of the tomato sauce. I guess what it real y needed was more sugar.

This was indeed really easy; just chop and simmer! I was looking for a way to use up my package of TVP, and this was a great way to do it. Even my omnivorous parents seemed to like this. Crazy! I always used the same veggie sloppy joe recipe before, but now I'll add this one to the mix.
