Ingredients
1 c Bob's Textured Vegetable Protein1 cup water1 TBSP Splenda2 eggs2 TBSP bread crums1/2 tsp NuSalt1/4 tsp ground thyme1/4 tsp ground sage1/4 tsp ground savory1/4 tsp black pepper
Directions
6 patties about 3 inchs wide, 1/2" thick.

Add spices and salt to water, bring to a boil.
Stir in TVP
Allow to cool

Beat eggs with splenda (or sweetner of choice)
Mix well the eggs, bread crumbs and TVP mixture.

Spread the oil evenly in a non stick skillet. Heat skillet

Form mixture into patties (about 1/4 c each). Fry for 5 minutes over medium high heat. Turn patties, reduce heat to medium cook another 5 minutes with pan covered.

I like to turn them again and let the first side cook a couple of minutes longer with the cover off.

Sausgages are done when there is no "juice" when squeezed and both sides are evenly browned.

Refrigerate or freeze leftovers.

    My first try at using tvp. I halved the recipe cause I wasn't too sure how it would turn out. Incredible the taste and texture was perfect, brown and delicious. Don't be put off if the mixture seems too moist at first. Once it's in the pan and fries for awhile it firms up nicely. - 9/21/10

    Thank you for your comment! Glad you enjoyed the sausage :-)
    I'm going to try making them into links sometime.
    The patties DO freeze pretty well for up to a month.
    Thanks again!

    Great. I actually added some cinnamon to mine and they tasted similar to Morningstar. - 9/7/12

    Unbelievable! I cooked an egg white and ground flax seed in a small omlet pan, stacked egg, "sausage" and a slice of cheddar flavored veggie cheese in a mini bagel to make a breakfast sandwich for about 300 cals, about 7 g fat and 24 g protein! - 4/13/11

    I followed all your directions but the patties WOULD NOT stay together and burned on both sides. I wish I hadn't wasted a whole cup of TVP on this. :( What a shame, I was really looking forward to these.... - 2/3/12

    Just found your recipe, preparing for a 30-day Pantry Challenge and this will be great with waffles for a Meatless Monday/Breakfast dinner. Thank you for sharing, I bet it will be delicious! - 3/3/11
