Years ago, I tried making meatless chili, using tofu, instead of ground beef. It was SO BLAND. I desperately fried up some ground beef, with plenty of chili powder and spices, and combined it with the ‘tofu chili’. The chili then became quite edible.
I love Greek salads, but I also like meat. Certain foods REQUIRE meat (like chili) and certain foods CANNOT have meat (like Greek salad). DON’T TAKE MEAT FROM AN ESSENTIAL ‘MEAT’ DISH! Likewise, don’t add meat to a non-meat food!
THE EXCEPTION IS BACON! It goes WITH EVERYTHING!
Greek salad with gyro meat and feta!! Yom
