Recipe: The vegetarian meatloaf – Nut loaf

December 11, 2016 by Kalle Leave a Comment

The vegetarian meatloaf - nut loaf

I must say that I really love meatloaf, but when you want to cut down on meat or serve a vegetarian then you need a meatless meatloaf! Meat the Nut Loaf!

This recipe is based on the Classic Vegetarian Nut Loaf from the Kitchn. I only made some smaller adjustments and made it clearer with the quantity as well as the instructions. I also added a mushroom sauce and Haricot verts to make it a complete meal.

The nut roast seems like the perfect vegetarian dish for occassions like Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.

We will introduce it to our Christmas meal, why don’t you also give it a try? Sure it takes a little too long to cook for a weeknight dinner but the taste and texture was perfect!

Here you can find this recipe in swedish.
