Meatloaf With Lentils and Vegetables image

I found this recipe online while looking for a good veggie-filled meatloaf. I made a few changes, even though I haven't made it yet. It sounds like it would be good with ground turkey or chicken as well (with the corresponding stock). The web site I found it on recommended topping with a salad made from baby salad leaves, lentils, carrot, onion, and tomato and red pepper chutney. I plan on topping it with tomato sauce or BBQ sauce.
