Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons flax meal
6 tablespoons water
olive oil, to taste
1 carrot, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
½ cup onion, diced
2 cups cremini mushroom, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup red bell pepper, diced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon vegan worcestershire
2 cups lentils, cooked
¾ cup brown rice, cooked
¾ cup quick-cook oats
¼ cup ketchup
1 teaspoon maple syrup

Steps:

  • To make the flax eggs, combine the flax meal and water in a small bowl and mix well. Set aside for at least 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large saucepan, heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the carrot and celery and cook until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the onion and mushrooms. Cook another 3-4 minutes, until the onions are semi-translucent.
  • Add another drizzle of olive oil to the pan, then add the garlic, bell pepper, and tomato paste. Cook for 2 more minutes, until the tomato paste is slightly browned.
  • Add the salt, pepper, parsley, and thyme, and cook for 1 more minute, until fragrant.
  • Add the soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce and cook for 2 more minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • In a food processor, add the lentils, brown rice, oats, flax eggs, and sautéed vegetables. Pulse 10-12 times until the mixture is slightly chunky.
  • Transfer the mixture to a parchment paper-lined loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • To make the glaze, combine the ketchup and maple syrup in a small bowl. Brush half of glaze on top of loaf, reserving the other half for later.
  • Bake the loaf for 45-50 minutes, or until an fork inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Brush with the remaining glaze, then slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 ½ cups water
1 cup brown lentils
⅓ cup water
3 tablespoons ground flax seed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, minced
1 cup minced fresh mushrooms
1 cup minced celery
2 large cloves garlic, minced

¼ cup ketchup
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons mustard

SLOW-COOKED CASHEW CHICKEN



Slow-Cooked Cashew Chicken image

I make this cashew chicken in my Fagor® Multi-Functional Cooker where it cooks in about 2 hours (mine runs hot), but you could also make it in a traditional slow cooker; just allow a longer cook time.
