Directions
Veggie Loaf, This is from a book called The Great American Detox Diet by Alex Jamieson of Supersize Me fame. All of her recipes are super healthy and this is the tastiest vegan loaf I’ve tried. Like other vegan loaves, this is more fragile than meatloaf. Be sure to let it cool about 15 minutes before slicing, and even then expect some crumbling., It turned out pretty good. use some quinoa instead of brown rice since I had that already cooked. I baked it in muffin tin as suggested. I think I am going to try it with some coconut milk instead of the tomato paste. I don’t really like tomato paste bu I tried to stick as close to the recipe as possible. Now its tweaking time! I will let you know how it turned out, Grrr….My review didn’t post for some reason. I want to make sure I remember my changes because I know I’ll be making this again. This was a delicious recipe as is I’m sure, but my changes were to use, both red and green bell pepper, more tomato paste and olives, almonds instead of walnuts, cilantro instead of parsley, 1 T. of soy sauce, baked in a muffin tins, uncovered for 40 mins. Loved the crispy edges! Served with mashed potatoes, gravy and salad. Loved it tonight, and looking forward to leftovers. It was flavorful without being over the top. Thanks for the keeper recipe.

Update 3/7/09: I Have Discovered That This Holds Together Better If You Mash Half the Lentils. It Also Helps to Add Some Flax Meal and Extra Liquid used V8. |
