I finally tried soy curls! They are not available to us locally-- and I do like to buy my groceries locally-- so I ended up ordering them.
I topped two pizzas and made 3 sandwiches for about $7.50 CAD using about $4.50 of Soy Curls product for the 2 pizzas and maybe $1 of soy curls for each sandwich.
They are a whole food and non-GMO. I didn't count in the cost of other ingredients, but I don't see them as being too dear when considering they were a nutritious part of six meals.
They were easy to put together and delicious!
