Instructions: As with all dishes including TVP, this is both easier and quicker to make than a beef casserole that uses butchers meat. Choose beef-flavored TVP chunks if you want to keep a beef-type taste. If you use vegetable burgers instead, do remember to reduce the amount of liquid you use.

Pre-heat the oven to 325 F. and lightly grease a casserole dish. Heat the oil in a saucepan and saute the celery and onion until just tender.

Add the rice and TVP chunks, and stir for a few minutes until the chunks are slightly browned. Now add the vegetable stock, tomatoes, soy sauce, salt, pepper and optional seasonings if desired. Stir well and bring to the boil.

Remove the mixture from the heat and pour into the casserole dish. Bake, covered, for 30 minutes.
