Smart Ground is my stand-by brand of soy crumbles. I use them in chili, and meat-eaters can't tell the difference.

I actually added some ground meat instead of making this vegetarian. I also substituted white beans for the black beans b/c I didn't have black beans. I also left out the hot pepper sauce and some of the diced tomatoes.

Morningstar is the brand of vegetarian meat crumbles I use, found in the frozen food aisles. Boca is another brand you might find.

I think it's called TVP or Textured Vegetable Protein. I use dried instead of frozen...it can be prepared by soaking in boiled water for 10 minutes to rehydrate. The brand I use is 'Bob's Red Mill'.

I assume that the vegetarian meat mixture referred to is the tofu/soy mixture you can find in your market's produce dept. It is very tasty.

Rice mixture is a bit dry. Would consider adding something to moisten the stuffing.
