REALLY GOOD VEGETARIAN MEATLOAF (REALLY!)



Really Good Vegetarian Meatloaf (Really!) image

High in fiber and protein, low in fat, easy and really yummy! I've always thought meatloaf looks and smells so delicious and savory so, as a vegetarian, I decided to make a no-meat version! This is basically our favorite meatloaf recipe but with cooked mashed lentils instead of ground meat. The result is a very tasty dinner!
