Vegetarian "Meat"loaf



This "meat"loaf may be vegetarian, but it delivers when you are craving serious comfort food. It’s good out of the pan and makes great leftovers as well. This concoction may sound a little strange but somehow comes out of the oven looking and tasting like (or even better than. I've been told) meatloaf.  Trust me, you won't be disappointed. 


Ingredients:
  • 4 eggs beaten
  • onion soup mix (I used about a ⅓ of a packet)
  • 1 ½ to 2 c Special K
  • 1 cup finely diced walnuts
  • ½ yellow onion, finely chopped
  • ¼ c canola oil (I have used olive oil as well)
  • 16 oz cottage cheese
  • A well greased/ oiled/ whatever 9x5 loaf pan
The order in which you  mix the ingredients doesn't matter,  just make sure it's mixed well. Pour the mixture into the loaf pan and bake at 350 for 60-70 minutes. Let rest for 5-10 minutes.



We enjoy the "meat"loaf on buns as a sandwich. This pairs well with some roasted red potatoes, mac n’ cheese or baked beans.
