Maximizing flavor and savings with TVP: A tasty twist on cottage pie

BY PATTI DIAMOND

In an era of rising prices, exploring versatile, budgetfriendly ingredients is crucial. Textured vegetable protein (TVP) is a versatile and costeffective meat substitute made from dehydrated soy flour or soy protein concentrate. It’s used as a meat extender or substitute, making it a popular choice for frugal people looking to stretch their meat budget or those following a vegetarian or vegan diet. TVP is known for its high protein content and ability to absorb flavors, making it a suitable extender or replacement for ground meat in many recipes.

To rehydrate TVP, use a 1:1 ratio of TVP to liquid (by volume). This means for every 1 cup of dry TVP add 1 cup of liquid. The dry TVP expands into 2 cups of meat substitute and can be stored in the fridge for three to five days.

When using TVP, season it generously with flavorful liquids, herbs, spices and sauces along with ingredients like onions, garlic and vegetables to enhance its neutral flavor.

Today, let’s explore TVP with a classic favorite: Cottage Pie. This offers significant savings without skimping on the pleasures of a hearty meal.

Savory Half-and-Half

Cottage Pie

Yield: 6 generous servings

Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes

For the mashed potatoes:

6 medium potatoes, about 2 lbs. or equivalent

leftover or instant

mashed potatoes

1/4 cup milk

1 tablespoon butter

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Filling:

1 cup Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP)

1 (14.5 ounce) can (1

1/2 cups) beef broth, divided

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 large onion, chopped

2 tablespoons tomato paste

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound ground beef

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 (16 ounce) bag frozen peas and carrots

1 (14.75 ounce) can

creamed corn

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Prepare a 9-by-13 baking dish with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. While it’s heating, peel and chop your potatoes. Place your potatoes in cool, salted water, then bring them to a boil for 10 minutes. This gradual heating ensures even cooking, preventing the outer layers from overcooking before the insides are tender. Once they’re cooked and drained, mash with the milk and butter, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, rehydrate the TVP. Heat 1 cup of beef broth in the microwave (or on the stovetop) until simmering. Add the TVP to rehydrate for 5 minutes.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions, sauteing until tender and slightly caramelized. Stir in the tomato paste and continue cooking and stirring for 3 minutes, allowing it

GREEK CHICKEN TZATZIKI BOWLS

Ingredients:

1/3 cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken

breasts or thighs, cubed

6 garlic cloves, chopped

2 shallots, chopped

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano

chili flakes, Kosher salt, and black pepper

2 Persian cucumbers, chopped

1 avocado, diced

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped

6 ounces crumbled feta cheese

1-2 cups Tzakiki sauce

lettuce, peperoncini, onion, tomatoes, and pitas, for serving

GINGER TAHINI

1/2 cup tahini

2 teaspoons grated ginger

BLUEBERRY BASQUE CHEESECAKE

Ingredients: 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3 large eggs, at room temperature

3/4 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups fresh blueberries granulated sugar and confectioners sugar, for dusting (optional)

Directions:

1. Place a rack in the middle of the oven.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch spring-form pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

to meld with the caramelized onions and develop a deeper flavor. Add the minced garlic and ground beef, and rehydrated TVP. Cook until the meat is browned and the TVP has absorbed the delicious flavors, about 5 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce, peas and carrots, creamed corn and the remaining 1/2 cup broth, and simmer the mixture for 10 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Transfer filling to the baking dish and spread it evenly. Spoon the mashed potatoes over the filling, creating an even layer. Top with cheese. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes. Cool slightly before serving. While savoring this scrumptious Cottage Pie, remember that TVP offers benefits beyond versatility and low-cost. TVP is environmentally friendly with a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional meat production. Moreover, its high protein and fiber content make it a nutritious addition to your diet.

So, next time you’re planning meals, remember TVP and turn an ordinary meal into a costconscious masterpiece. Lifestyle expert Patti Diamond is the pennypinching, party-planning, recipe developer and content creator of the website Divas

Difficulty: ★★★★★ 9/24

1 clove garlic, grated

2 teaspoons tamari

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 teaspoons honey

Directions:

1. In a bowl, combine the yogurt, olive oil, cubed chicken, garlic, shallots, paprika, oregano, chili flakes, and a large pinch each of salt and pepper. Let marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature or up to overnight in the refrigerator.

2. Preheat the oven to 425° F. Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes, toss and bake another 5-10 minutes, or until cooked through. Switch the oven to broil. Broil 1-2 minutes, until the chicken chars on the edges.

3. Meanwhile, combine the cucumbers, avocado, lemon, dill, salt, and pepper.

4. To make the tahini. Combine all ingredients and 1/4 cup water in a blender and blend until smooth. If needed, add water to thin the sauce as desired. Season to taste with salt.

5. To assemble, add lettuce to a bowl. Top with chicken, cucumber/avocado, feta cheese, and any other desired toppings. Add a few dollops of Tzaziki sauce. Drizzle over the tahini.

2. Gently roll the puff pastry out on a clean surface to 1/4 inch thickness. Press the pastry inside the pan and up the sides of the pan. It is OK if the pastry does not go all the way up the pan. Transfer to the fridge and chill while you prepare the batter.

3. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sugar on medium speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl until very smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, 1 at a time until the eggs are fully incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then reduce the mixer speed to medium-low. Add cream, vanilla, and salt, and beat until combined, about 30 seconds.

3. Sift the flour into the batter, then beat again to combine, about 30 seconds. Pour the batter into the prepared pastrylined pan. Gently sprinkle the blueberries over the batter, some will sink. Gently fold the corners the pastry over the berries. Sprinkle the top of the cake with 1-2 tablespoons granulated sugar.

4. Transfer to the oven and bake for 55-65 minutes, until deeply golden brown on top and still very jiggly in the center. Let the cake cool 5 minutes, then unmold. Let cool completely. Slice into wedges and serve at room temperature or chilled. I like room temp best.

½ cup honey-roasted peanuts, chopped

cup finely chopped fresh chives or flat-leaf parsley

Ingredients:

Heat oil (or ghee) in a large pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add onion, celery and salt; stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and begin to turn golden brown around the edges, about 10 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, sage, white pepper and crushed red pepper, if using. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add stock, increase heat to high and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, add peanut butter, whisking until it melts into the stock. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the soup is slightly thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat. Using an immersion blender or in batches in a blender, process the soup until it is very smooth. Stir in vinegar. Serve the soup topped with chopped peanuts and chives (or parsley).

Eric Martsolf is “Brady” on “Days of Our Lives.”

BY TONY RIZZO

HOLLYWOOD -- Oscar winner Jamie Foxx (55) was on a fast-moving career train starring in four films this year when his train disappeared from the tracks. The speculation is that Foxx disappeared, too? Rumors floated that he was in a hospital, but no one was talking. Finally, sources claimed he’d suffered a stroke. Then reports surfaced from Foxx himself saying he was on the mend, but he never actually revealed what he was at the hospital for.

Foxx had already completed “The Burial” for Amazon Prime Video, costarring Tommy Lee Jones (release date was Sept. 11), and “Tin Soldier,” co-starring Robert De Niro and Scott Eastwood (no release date yet). And, recently, news came that he’ll play God (did his near-death hospital experience connect

him to God?) alongside Mickey Rourke’s Devil in the comedy “Not Another Church Movie,” with Vivica A. Fox, Tisha Campbell and Jasmine Guy. * * *

The big question around Hollywood today is, how will CBS, NBC and ABC have their normal September premiere season with the actors’ and writers’ strikes still unresolved and the fact that they haven’t even had meetings to resolve the issues? CBS will kick off this strike-impacted season with the premiere of “Yellowstone,” starring Kevin Costner, Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser. “Yellowstone” has already had a five-year run on their parent company, Paramount+. Also hailing from the streaming service is “Star Trek: Picard;” “Star Trek: Short Treks;” “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds;” the reboot of

CELEBRITY EXTRA

BY DANA JACKSON

Q:I just saw that “Captain America” star Chris Evans got married. Is his wife an actress? The last serious relationship I remember him having was with Jenny Slate. I was hoping that would work out. (I loved her in “Parks and Recreation.”)

-- K.K.

A: The last of the Hollywood Chrises has joined the other two (Chris Hemsworth and Chris Pratt) in wedded bliss by marrying his girlfriend, Alba Baptista, of almost two years during a ceremony in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Baptista is a Portuguese actress whose most recent English-language films are the charming film “Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris” and the Netflix action series “Warrior Nun.”

As for Evans and Jenny Slate, their relationship has been over since early 2018. They first started dating in 2016 after

“Twilight Zone;” “Mayor of Kingstown;” “1883” starring Isabel May, Tim McGraw and Sam Elliott; “1923” starring Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford; and Joshua Jackson’s series “Fatal Attraction.”

ABC’s parent company is Disney, with Disney+ to give us all things “Star Wars,” such as “The Mandalorian,” “The Book of Boba Fett,” “Obi-Wan Kenobi” -- plus shows like “Willow,” “The Right Stuff,” “Hawkeye” and “The Mysterious Benedict Society.”

NBC has Peacock, so expect series like “Brave New World,” “Dr. Death,” “Days of Our Lives: Beyond Salem,” “The Lost Symbol,” “One of Us Is Lying,” “The Girl in the Woods,” “Bel-Air,” “Queer as Folk,” “Vampire Academy,” “The Calling” and “Irreverent.” If you resisted paying for streaming services, you’ll

filming the movie “Gifted.” He raved about her in interviews, saying “Sometimes you just meet the same animal, and that’s just [what it’s like] with Jenny.”

Slate, who has been married before, found love again with writer and art curator Ben Shattuck. The couple wed last year and also have a little girl named Ida. While Evans and Slate made a cute couple, it appears they ultimately found happiness with others the way it was meant to be.

* * *

Q:When is the “Frasier” reboot debuting? Also, I’ve heard conflicting information about where it will air. Will it be on Peacock or Paramount?

-- E.J.

A: Kelsey Grammer returns to television as his iconic character Frasier Crane this fall on Paramount+. We first met the hilariously uptight psychiatrist on “Cheers.” He was then given his

have a lot to watch.

* * * If you’re an old-movie fan, the best cruise ever was announced by Turner Classic Movies. It sails from San Diego on Nov. 6, stops in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, on Nov. 8 and then stops in Ensenada, Mexico, on Nov. 10 before heading back to San Diego on Nov. 11. So far, the stars promised aboard are Kim Novak; Elliott Gould; Oscar winner George Chakiris; Judy Garland’s daughter, Lorna Luft; and more. Cabin prices started from $3,600 per person for a single guest to $1,900 per person for two guests, $1,300 for three, and $1,000 for four. Although it’s sold out, there is a waiting list, and cancellations may become available ... which only proves nostalgia ain’t cheap!

Game Boards

On top of the world! In September 1909, The New York Times published Robert Peary’s claims of reaching the North Pole in April of that year, crediting him with the pole’s discovery. However, just a week earlier, another newspaper claimed that Frederick Cook had reached the pole the year before. Both claims have been disputed since then, but they were sensations at the time.

The journey to the North Pole inspired commemorative figurines, souvenirs and games.

This North Pole game has a patent date of 1910. It is a game of skill in which the player rolls one of the included metal balls along the winding track, earning points for each hole the ball passes without falling in. The rules are printed on the back of the board, along with a scene of two explorers approaching the pole.

This game sold for $480 at Morphy Auctions. The lot included the colorfully lithographed tin game board, two metal balls, the instructions sheet and the box with a color picture of a family in early 1900s dress playing the game. Commercial game boards sell for higher prices when they come with the original box and pieces. * * *

Q: How can I safely clean old coins?

A: Coins should not be cleaned. Collectors want coins with the patina unchanged. If your coins are collectible, they should be protected from fingerprints and stored properly. Don’t touch the coins to examine them unless you are wearing white gloves. The oil from your skin will damage the coin. If you must touch a coin, hold it by the edge. Coins should not be stored loose in a box or envelope. They may be scratched. Paper, cardboard, plastic and wood give off chemical vapors that speed corrosion. You can buy archival coin holders online or at a coin shop. Coins should be kept in a cool, dry location. You can find more information on properly storing coins on the American Numismatic Association website, money.org.

* * *

TIP: Clean cast iron with coarse salt and a soft sponge. The salt is abrasive enough to remove bits of food and absorb oil without harming the pan’s seasoning. Rinse

and wipe dry.

own equally successful spin-off in the former show of “Frasier,” a sitcom that won 37 Primetime Emmy Awards and continues to run in syndication and streaming to this day. Now Frasier returns to his roots in Boston for a new sitcom filmed before a live studio audience. Alas, the late John Mahoney is gone as Frasier’s cranky father, Martin, and David Hyde Pierce is reportedly not returning as Frasier’s brother, Niles.

A two-episode premiere of the new “Fraiser” will debut on Paramount+ on Oct. 12 with weekly episodes to follow. It’s reported that the same episodes will also air on CBS on Oct. 17 as a special event, but viewers will have to subscribe to Paramount+ to watch the rest of the season.

Q: What was the name of the funny show Ted Knight did where he had two beautiful daughters?

There was also a hilarious guy who lived in the home, too, or at least nearby. -- L.D.

A:You’re thinking of “Too Close for Comfort,” which starred Knight as a cartoonist who worked out of his home in San Francisco. Nancy Dussault played his wife, and Lydia Cornell and Deborah Van Valkenburgh played his two grown daughters who rented the apartment below. Jim J. Bullock was a hoot as Monroe.

The show changed its name and concept to “The Ted Knight Show” during its final season. Sadly, the sitcom ended in 1987 after Knight lost his battle with cancer at the age of 62.
