Is there some kind of food that’s basically tofu but made from beans other than soy? I’ve had em whole and mashed up into a paste, but iirc soy beans are the only one’s I’ve had as their own cohesive block,
The texture of tofu is a turn off for a lot of people, but what if you make tofu from like kidney beans or something? A product that’s firmer and chewier (and probably not called ___ tofu, cuz people are idiots) could potentially be a hit.
Edit - loving the replies this is getting! Looks like I’ve got some homework to do!

Not what you asked but you’ll still like it: you should try chickpea pasta! Just don’t overcook it and it’s awesome! Another vegetarian cooking tip you didn’t ask for: cook with more fat! Meat has a shiiiiiiitload of fat in it, even the “lean” stuff. You will feel much more satisfied with vegetarian meals if you just use more oil. And you will still be eating less fat than with meat.
