    This is...I don't even know anymore. I just grab ingredients and smash them together. Breakfast is what I can eat, dinner is whatever is left over.

    What's TVP?

    textured vegetable protein - soy flour based meat substitute, typically sold dry in bulk. My husband seasons it as "taco meat" or puts it in chili & some other stuff like spaghetti sauce, since he doesn't eat ground beef. I do eat beef/meat, but I like it, too.

    What are hobnobs?

    A hobnob is an delicious oatmeal-y cookie with a layer of chocolate on one side! Generally you eat them when you have a cup of tea and dunk them as you would an Oreo. They're most common over in the UK, though I HAVE heard you can get them in the states at places such as World Market. My boyfriend's family is British and every time his mom goes to the UK or his family there comes here I always request like 3949549585854 packs of Hobnobs because I love them so much. c:

    A lot of this food is quite unusual to me so it's funny that Americans would be puzzled by a hobnob. I believe most British diets are at least 50% hobnob.
