Stuff
Croustade can easily become a satisfying lunch given its higher protein content with the use of PVT. In this case, a double or even triple portion could be taken to ensure that it reflects a meal portion. Don’t hesitate to use it as a snack as well since its protein and carbohydrate content makes it ideal for filling you up and stocking up on energy.
PVT: textured vegetable protein!
Did you know that PVT is produced from soy flour? Since it keeps for a very long time, it can easily be used to add protein to your meal. As an added bonus, it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes. You can grind it to add it to a muffin recipe, add it directly to yogurt or even rehydrate it to easily replace meat. To rehydrate it, simply add 210 ml of boiling water or broth to 1 cup of TVP, stir, then let sit for 5-10 minutes. Good food!
