Vegetarian Sloppy Joes
Rating (0 Rated)
From our Fall 2011 issue of Graze magazine. One of Outpost's most popular prepared foods! The base for our veggie version of this popular sandwich is textured vegetable protein - TVP for short. It's made from soybeans and looks, tastes and acts much like ground meat without the saturtated fat or cholesterol. Look for it in our bulk food section -  you can buy just what you need. Even meat-lovers will gobble this sandwich up. Perfect for a crowd, this recipe is easy to double.
