Yummy way to use up my TSP, Kree! I had a little trouble with some of the measurements. Figuring out what was 1 1/2 oz TVP was a bit difficult but I eventually decided on 1/2 cup dry. I omitted the oil and just used a hefty portion of cooking spray. I used garam masala and left out the water chestnuts as I did not have any. I used a granny smith apple and did use the coconut. While the clove flavor was nice, it was a little disconcerting to bite into a clove (and they are too small to find and pull out). I might leave those out or use some powdered cloves. Served over brown rice for an interesting meal.

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career.
Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
