Vegan Tvp And Tofu Meatloaf Recipes

VEGAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350
• Chop onion, celery, mushrooms, red pepper, and carrot (diced). I used the small blade on my favorite vegetable chopper.
• In a large skillet, cook onion, garlic, mushrooms, carrots and celery, and salt and pepper until browned. (You may use a little vegetable broth to avoid sticking )
• In a food processor, pulse the prepared lentils, quick oats, flaxseed, bread crumbs, cooked vegetables, tomato paste, bbq sauce, mustard, and parsley in a food processor.
• The finished product should be chunky; do not over Pulse.
• Use a silicone backing or placed parchment paper in the base of a glass loaf pan. If you don't have a loaf pan, you may form the dough into a loaf shape on a cookie sheet.
• Place dough into the loaf pan and gently press the top to form a bread shape on top.
• Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 35 minutes, covered.
• Uncover after 35 minutes, and drizzle additional bbq sauce on top.
• Return to oven for 10 minutes uncovered.
• Remove from oven; recover and let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
• I find it easier to remove it from the pan before cutting.

TOFU MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Drain tofu and mash.
• Combine all ingredients and mix well.
• Place in a loaf pan coated with oil.
• Bake at 350F for one hour.
• Cool in pan for 15 minutes.
• Garnish with ketchup, BBQ sauce, and/or chopped parsley.
• When cold, can be sliced for sandwiches.

TVP FAUX MEATLOAF

Steps:

• 1.) Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• 2.) In medium bowl, combine prepared broth, ketchup, tamari and TVP. Mix to combine and let stand 10 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
• 3.) Add remaining ingredients, except topping. Mix well.
• 4.) Pack mixture into a 9 x 5 loaf pan or a glass casserole. (Many people making this suggest just forming into a loaf on a baking sheet.) Bake 40-45 minutes.
• 5.) If using topping, spread on loaf during the last 10 minutes of baking.
