ingredients
directions
- Add all ingredients and bring to a boil over a low heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and cover.
- Depending on your preferences, you can reduce the heat to lower to a simmer for 5-10 more minutes or until the mush is very dense. You can cover and let sit for 5-10 minutes for a less thick, more chewy mush.
- The recipe works well in a rice cooker, or overnight on low in a crock pot for hot cereal when you first wake up.
- You may also put this into a pot overnight without cooking it, then heat it up on the stove or in the microwave.

This was a nice change from oatmeal. I mixed it up the night before and put it in the fridge. Microwaved it on high for 2 1/2 minutes the next morning. Very nice. I don't have fructose but it worked nicely with 1 Tbls brown sugar. I've made this a few times now and have mixed it up by adding unsweetened coconut, cocoa powder, dried fruit, or milk. Versatile and yummy. -
I thought this was a wonderfully healthy breakfast and filling. I assembled this the night before to soak the tvp and oats and cooked for about 3 minutes in the microwave the next morning. I love the ease of this. I followed the ingredient list this time but for the future I would use splenda brown sugar for the fructose. I also liked that the molasses were not overpowering but helped to give the dish a nice color. I had no pecans so I used slivered alomonds ( only 3-4 almonds for my serving). While 3 tablespoons of pecans would be good, that added a lot of extra fat calories to this dish. (Not good if you're counting calories!) I do not think this recipe would make 5 servings for the average person. I got 2 servings out of this recipe. I will make this again because it's a wonderful way to get low calorie high protein in my diet. I had only used tvp as a replacement for hamburger in the past, it's nice to find another tasty way to use it. Thanks so much for posting this great recipe Budgiegirl. -
So excited to find a high protein version of porridge! I have sweetened with xylitol. I think this will be a new regular breakfast meal for me :)

Made this but left out the sugar and put in some cocoa powder...YUMM! I'm making it again tonight.

I have always enjoyed cooking and looking for recipes. I have to admit though, until I joined Weight Watchers four years ago I never did much cooking. Since then it has became vital to do my own cooking and I find I am really good at it. I really enjoy trying new ingredients like Quinoa, Millet, Porktenderloin, hoisin sauce, beans, Textured Vegetable Protein among many other new ingredients. My family has started thinking I am a little weird with all the unusual ingredients I have in my pantry. My passions are my 3 nephews, Matthew, Lucas and Charles and my 8 parrots, Guy, Pete, Toby, Daisy, Zeke, Ernie, Max and Lu. They keep me positive when life takes a nose dive.
