tvp-tacos recipe

 In the Food section of our paper last week (The Columbus Dispatch) there was a 
 recipe called South of the Border Flip. It called for ground chuck, kidney 
 beans, cheddar cheese, corn, and was topped with Corn Bread.
 
 I decided to try making it with TVP. I doubled the amount of all of the spices 
 since TVP is somewhat flavorless. I tasted the mixture and thought it was so 
 good that I stood over the stove shoveling spoonfuls into my mouth. I decided 
 against making the Corn Bread Mixture that was supposed to go on top of it and 
 just wrapped the filling in fatfree tortillas.
