Not worth it.,
By A Customer
This review is from: i can't believe it's not meat (Paperback)
Judging from the titles, the book should instruct how to make your own faux chicken, beef, and pork. This is not the case. All of the recipes call for prepackaged meat substitutes. Personally, I don't want to have to rely on a grocer's, Whole Foods included, poor selection of soy products. Almost everyone out there can figure out how to make traditional recipes vegetarian using meat substitutes. If you are new to the veg lifestyle, and have never cooked a meal in your life, this book might be somewhat useful; otherwise it's not worth it.

This review is from: i can't believe it's not meat (Paperback)
So you've looked in your local health food store and seen the "Veggie Ribs" and "Chiken Patties" mixes and thought, "Ya, right! " Well think again! The mixes in and of themselves are surprisingly wonderful. Great for families where all members are not vegetarian. They can fool the most ferocious meat-eater. Once you try one, you'll want to try more. Enter this book. It is a great tool for learning a variety of ways in which to incorporate textured soy into your diet through the use of these wonderful mixes. The recipes in this book are terrific, for example, try the Smokey Mountain Barbecue Chiken Tenders or the Chiken Breasts Dijon. Besides tasting great, the recipes are all very low in fat, but high in nutritional value (nutritional information is given for all recipes) and very easy. If you thought eating soy meant eating only tofu, try this book and open up a world of better health and taste! Your family will thank you for it.

Not what I expected.,
By Dennis Triplett - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: i can't believe it's not meat (Paperback)
After purchasing this book, I found that most of the TVP products needed to be purchased from an online store rather than making it yourself. Unless you want to keep running to your local Health Food store or buying online, I would look elsewhere for TVP meat substitute cooking ideas.
Personally, I would rather make my own Chiken (that's how they spell it) strips, nuggets, etc. or beef substitutes, as a right of passage rather than buying them. That's what I thought I was getting when I bought this book, but no... 52 of 62 people found the following review helpful:
