My wife and I have developed this wonderful recipe for meatless "sloppy joes". I know there are other recipes in the archives, but this one is (I believe) different from all of them.

Combine Tvp, soy sauce, worcestersire sauce and water in a bowl and let set until the loquid is absorbed.

Dice the onion and green pepper, and "sautee" in liquid of your choice. When the onion has started to brown a little, add the Tvp and any remaining liquid.

Slightly mash the beans and add to the Tvp/onions. Add barbeque sauce of your choice. I use either homemade Bbq sauce, or a spicey brand like Kc aAsterpiece. Sometimes I make it a little less spicey for the kids by using half spicey Bbq sauce and half catsup.

Mix well, season to taste with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Simmer for at least 5 minutes to heat everything through. Serve on hamburger buns.

Makes enough for about 8 sandwiches.
