What do you think about tvp/tsp is it healthy?

how often do you eat it?how do you cook it?



i am 16 and my mom just bought me some i looked up some recipes but i was in a hurry so i put 1/2 cup dry tvp and 1/2 cup of soymilk(the recipes mostly dehydrated with water or vege broth..but i used soymilk for fun lol, and it turned out good!) and put in the microwave for 4 minutes. and mixed with peanuts after..

i ate it and it was a good treat and i enjoyed eating it thinking it was so healthy (i was amazed by it's nutritional value http://www.thedailyplate.com/nutrition-calories/food/generic/tvp-textured-vegetable-protein-dry) and was planing on eating this for brekafast a lot (instead of oatmeal..which has the same about of 150calories but only 5 grams of protein..and tvp has 24g. protein for 160cals!!!)

then i read this...

By the girl named "nubbyknowhow"'s answer.

it makes sence to me so far..

is she right?

do you think its health to eat tvp with soymilk and some nuts???|||tvp is healthy. especially for vegans since you don't get as much protein. you definitely need the protein source.|||lots of sodium. dont eat it every day|||TVP is healthy. It has lots of protein with very little fat. Eating protein has the added benefit of being "slow release" energy, so it will usually be several hours before you are hungry again.



It's not "junk food".|||I read that person's comment. It is not accurate to describe it as "the junk of the soybean". Some people have a mentality that everything is made of useful and useless parts (she used the word "guts") but this is not true. TVP is made from soy flour after the oil is removed and uses no major chemicals other than steam. There are far more chemicals used to extract oil. Oil or TVP, the chemicals are always removed before being sold to the consumer.
