" Lentil Peace Meatloaf "

 

1 cup lentils (brown or green)

1 tsp. salt

2 cups water

1 small onion finely chopped

1 stalk celery finely chopped

1 clove garlic minced

1 cup quick cooking oats

1 egg beaten (or egg replacer)

Bring salt and water to a boil and add lentils, cover

and set to simmer for 25-30 mins. until lentils are

soft and most of the water if evaporated. Drain and

very lightly partially mash lentils and place them

into a mixing bowl.

Stir in onion, garlic, celery, mayo cheese and mix

well.

Add egg, BBQ sauce, basil, parsley, Mrs. Dash or Spike

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and oil a loaf pan.

Spoon mixture into loaf pan and smooth top with back

Bake 30-40 mins. until loaf is dry, firm and golden

brown.

Cool in pan on rack for 10 mins.

Run a sharp knife along the edges of pan and turn loaf

over on a serving plate.

 

Note* Half way through baking I brush the top with a

little BBQ sauce.

It's also good with a vegetarian gravy over the slices

and mashed potatoes.

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won't forget to put roses on your grave - yeah! "
