PURIS Non-GMO Textured Pea Protein

Excellent product! Very fresh and crunchy. I bought bulk betting it would be fresher than the smaller bags, 2hich 2ere never crunchy. Great value. I vacuum sealed it all into jars and reseal the jar each time I have some. I eat it with 2% or whole milk Greek yogurt, almond milk, chopped jicama, salt (so much better), stevia, vanilla extract or maple flavor, and cinnamon. Scrumptious low carb start to my day.

I've rebought this product 4 times and will probably continue to do so. It is a great substitute for TVP, which is not as healthy since it is heavily based on soy. Good, neutral taste makes it a great base for many dishes. It is very versatile. I use it to make meatballs, patties, or just some nice crumbles to put on top of pasta or use as filling for tacos. All you have to do is adjust the seasoning. It browns nicely in the skillet. Healthy and tastes great.

As a lifelong vegan, I purchased this to have on hand for soups and stir fries. It is flavorless, but soaks up flavors quickly. Adds a chewy texture to dishes. A 5-10 minute soak before using seems adequate. It is supposed to have a decent protein content, so a good addition so far to my diet.

I have been looking for good “meat alternative” options ever since my husband started his vegan journey. I am so happy I found this one. It comes dehydrated so at first the quantity seems small, but just follow the instructions and see this product change like magic. The instructions say to add 1.5 cups of water to 2 cups of product. That’s exactly what I did. I made sure to stir it so the product and water mixed well. I let it sit (about 15-20 minutes) while I cooked up an onions and tomatoes base for my dish. The product more than doubled in size in this time. I used it to prepare a vegan “ground beef” and bell peppers dish. It cooked like ground beef normally would, except with a much shorter cooking time. The finished dish looked similar to the one I would make with ground beef. The aroma, flavor and texture were all there without the “meat” tasting strange or rubbery. The product absorbed the spices really well and the dish turned out looking and tasting delicious. Am I switching over to a vegan diet? No, but I will happily eat this alongside my husband. If you are looking to add a “meat alternative” to your vegan options, and are in need of a product that cooks up easily and tastes great, I highly recommend this.

As good as TVP and better because it is Pea Protein Nice to have an alternative to soy granulesBest taco filling recipe I found is on Shane$ Simple website and this product works great for it!
