    Something I found recently, and actually quite like: Texturized Vegetable Protein (TVP). I get it from Bulk Barn where for $5 you get a gigantic bag (I don't really know the weight but its size is about 4L at least) and 1/4C is 80 cals with 12g protein. It's easy to make - basically use it instead of ground beef and it taste like whatever you put it in: chill, spaghetti, meat loaf, burgers, etc.

    It used to have a bad rep, but I did a bunch of research on it and it's quite popular with vegetarians.
  • wow seriously the USA sounds awesome! Am I right or what?

    What's all these bargain bins you guys talk about, ans why don't we have them here in the uk?
