TVP Macaroni Italian

Had some TVP (Texture Vegetable Protein ) around and loads of Macaroni.

Time to spice some things up.

1 box of Macaroni and Cheese - discard the cheese package (for me it's no problem my stomach can't handle the processed cheese)
    Cook the Macaroni as per directions

Add about 1 cup TVP
Cook till TVP thickens pour out remaining fluids
Mix in about 4 0z*. Zesty Italian dressing
1/2* teaspoon Ground Sage
1/4* teaspoon Basil Leaf
1/2* teaspoon 1 step Beef seasoning
1 6 oz. Tomato Paste
Seasoning salt  couple of dashes


* Note all measurements are approximates as I don't measure but go by feel (this can be dangerous to the taste buds at times).

Makes about 3 servings. 

The TVP adds thickness to the Macaroni, but with the spices you will not know it's meatless.

Delicious = yes.
