I made this yummy lentil loaf last night and it was so good!Packed with protein and so filling.It makes the perfect Thanksgiving dish,add some creamy mashed or sweet potatoes and some greens and who needs turkey anyway!!!
Thanksgiving Loaf
2 cups lentils
1 big yellow onion,chopped
3 minced garlic cloves
3/4 cup barchup(half barbecue sauce-half ketchup)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup fresh parsley
2 tsp fresh or dried thyme
2 tbsp braggs
salt and pepper to taste
Bring 4 cups of water to a boil and add lentils.
Reduce heat and simmer until all the water is absorbed about 50-60min.
Add more water after 30min if needed.
Saute onions and garlic for about 5 min until soft.
When lentils are done,let them stand for about 30min-they will thicken up.
Combine them with all other ingredients and half of the barchup and process them in a food processor.
Press mixture into loaf pan and spread remaining barchup on top.
Bake for about 45min at 350*F.
Let stand for about 10min before slicing.
