Tvp "meat" Sauce

"I just started to be vegan and I was having a hard time making recipes that actually taste good. I came up with this concoction based on recipes I used to make with ground meat. This is great over brown rice or any other grain! Make the grains while or before cooking this sauce. This recipe only makes for about one or two people, so you can double or triple it. I hope you enjoy the recipe!"
