Gluten veggie meat is an excellent supplement to meatless dishes. Many store-bought vegan protein meats are made from gluten. This particular recipe is very inexpensive and can provide a family with several weeks of meat substitute that is delicious and a fraction of the cost of sustaining a diet that is exclusively animal meat.
