Finally sprung for the 12lb bag because we love these things. I usually make buffalo soy curls and throw them on a salad or mac and cheese, or make lemon "chicken" orzo with them, but I'm open to other suggestions from anyone else who likes them since I have enough for about the next decade.

I usually buy the smaller bags at Natural Grocers. They're just dehydrated soy beans that you rehydrate and cook. If you do try them, a lot of recipes will say soak and then drain, but I'd also really recommend squeezing the excess liquid out, too. If you don't, they can end up spongy. I use them in place of chicken a lot.
