Has anyone here ever used dried tofu?  If so, what was your experience?  I'm looking for a soy protein that I can crumble and put into chili.  

I would use the prepackaged meat alternative crumbles (like the ones from Morningstar), but I need it to be gluten-free for DH.  Eden Foods makes one.

Costco just started carrying Morningstar "crumbles" in the freezer section - resealable freezer bag.  Nice alternative to ground beef in chili or spagetti sauce.  I really like it, and I'm more of a carnivore than a vegetarian.

TVP (texturized vegetable protein) is basically dehydrated soy crumbles. It's gluten-free. That'ss what I use in chili - I add it at the end, and it rehydrates and soaks up some of the liquid in the pot so it ends up being rich and flavorful.

Oh cool!  I had just written off TVP because so many of them contain either mystery ingredients or definite gluten sources.  Good ol' Bob's Red Mill.  Thanks!
