Not yet! But have been thinking of long-lasting veggie burger dried mix as an alternative source of protein. Easy to prepare, soya-based - should mylar up ok.

See: http://www.lembas.co.uk/lembas.html

eg.
50g should be a decent serving per person.
5kg bag of burgermix = £23.45 = 24p per serving (burger) = 100 servings

I have the Whitworths ones - wish they were bigger Lisa. Thanks for that Hobo - could you mix that veggie burger stuff with a small amount of real meat to beef it up a bit ? LOL ! Off to look at that site ta.

Some veggie stuff is good - but a lot of it is like chewing your way through a cardboard box! And yes, the Linda McCartney stuff is baaaaaaaaaad!

I like beanburgers - 1000 percent better than the traditional textured vegetable protein or quorn 'veggie' burgers, mind you, they couldn't be any worse *shudder*.
