This meal was conceived and prepared in under 20 minutes. My kind of meal! (My omnivore husband had it for dinner, too!)

Wondering where you can find soy curls? I order mind from Vegan Essentials (I get my vegan Parma at Vegan Essentials, too!)

Are you a soy curl fan?

  1. I had no idea what soy curls were until Heather @ Better with Veggies hipped me to them Thursday night!  Thanks for the ordering links (and a great recipe) – I’m looking forward to trying them!

  2. This looks wonderful. Also, I wanted to thank you for inspiring me to tweet my pins  – i love the system I have now, and it was totally inspired by you pinning and tweeing my spicy hemp hummus 🙂

  3. I’m going to save this recipe for the day when Soy Curls become available in Ontario,  Canada. I have requested that one of the local Seventh Day Adventist stores carry it but so far………..no luck.

  4. I’ve never tried soy curls before but will be sure to soon.Is the texture similar to Seitan? Have you ever seen them at Whole Foods? If not, I’ll be shopping at Vegan Essentials for them! Thanks.

      1.  Yes, I do use TVP for chili and and such. I’ll check out Vegan Essentials for the curls.
        Thanks again.

  5. I have never tried them before, but of course, as everyone out here keeps talking about them, my interest is peaked! I was just turned on to the most amazing seitan made by a small company named Upton’s Originals. IT comes in a variety of flavors and it rocks. I ordered it from Vegan Essentials because my Whole Foods won’t be carrying it until the end of this month or next.

    1.  I love Uptons! They were at Vida Vegan Con and I was able to sample some of their yumminess then.  I haven’t seen it locally…yet!
