What about BBQ tofu (which you can just as easily fry or bake)? You basically just slice up a brick or two of tofu, slather it in BBQ sauce, and cook. You can make big batches and freeze it until you're ready to use it.
Granted, this obviously depends on what you consider highly processed, but I don't think (?) tofu generally has much going on in that department, and you could make your own BBQ sauce if you'd prefer.
You could also do the same thing with seitan or maybe even tempeh.
Oh, yeah, that's a fine level of processing. I guess I'm mostly worried about getting a decent balance of nutrients and not having too much sodium. I can see tempeh or tofu sliced to be very thin. I've not been much for a lot of the seitan products out there, but maybe I can give it another try.
It's super easy to make your own seitan, but if you just don't like it that's a different issue entirely. (I on the other hand love seitan but can't stand tempeh.)
I've only had limited exposure to seitan. Usually it's had a chewiness to it that I found unpleasant. I found tempeh to be more satisfying. Thinking back, it's mostly been in the form of the "kielbasa" type sausages.
I can definitely see what you mean. That's something I enjoy about it, but I get it might not be for everyone.
