Chili Soy Chunks:
Chili Soy chunks are a delicious, spicy, and vegetarian dish. It is a good substitute for Chili Chicken and Chicken Chinese dishes. Soya chunks are made of soybeans and a good substitute for meat. It contains protein, calcium, iron, and carbohydrates. If it makes it dry it can be a good starter or if it is made as gravy it can be used as a side dish. Enjoy this healthy dish as you like dry or gravy. I personally make it as a starter on my dinner parties for a substitute meat dish for vegetarians. Make it and pour your comments on how it comes out.
