2 tablespoons liquid smoke
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon sea salt (optional, but I found it needed just a little to kick it up a notch)
1 teaspoon ketchup
2 tablespoons peanut oil (or vegetable oil-I used corn oil)
1 cup water
1 cup textured vegetable protein (TVP)

Steps:

Place the liquid smoke, soy sauce, salt, ketchup, oil and water in a measuring cup.
Stir and let stand until fully absorbed, about 25-30 minutes.
Spread over a baking sheet and bake at 250, stirring every 15 minutes until they're dried out, 30-45 minutes.
Store in the freezer.
