That's the kind we get. We go through a lot of it. It's cheaper than
meat, and the people in my family like it (if people don't like it, I am
totally in support of their not eating it, but we like it fine). Here
are the things I use it for most often:
1) Tacos, either in place of or in addition to ground meat and/or chorizo
2) Sloppy joes, either homemade or with canned sauce
3) For James's breakfast bread, I throw a handful (actually, 50 grams)
into the bread dough and then it's got enough protein for him to have
just toast for breakfast, rather than needing to add cottage cheese or eggs
4) "Meat" sauce for spaghetti
5) Chili
