How to Make Tvp Breakfast Sausage

  1. In a large bowl, combine the TVP, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until the TVP is evenly coated with the seasonings.
  2. Add the egg and water, mixing until the TVP is fully hydrated and starts to clump together. Let it sit for 5 minutes to absorb the liquid.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or cooking spray.
  4. Shape the TVP mixture into small sausage patties or crumbles.
  5. Cook the sausage patties for approximately 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are browned and heated through.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy! These TVP breakfast sausages are delicious on their own, or as part of a larger breakfast plate.
