Answer
I call this my super, extra, wholesome carrot loaf recipe:
2 tablespoons water or broth, for steam-frying
1 onion, diced
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 large wholesome carrot, peeled and grated
2 celery ribs, diced
1 cup mushroom, cleaned and chopped
2 cups veggie burgers or veggie crumbles
1 cup uncooked quick oatmeal or oat bran
1/4-1/2 cup vegetable broth, as needed
1/2 cup cooked oatmeal
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 dashes vegetarian worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Directions
1Preheat the oven to 350º. Spray a loaf pan or 8x8 square baking pan with nonstick spray and set aside (an 8x8 pan makes a crisper loaf).
2Grind the into a coarse meal using a food processor or spice/coffee grinder. Place in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
3Sauté any vegetables you've chosen in the water or broth for steam-frying until soft. Add to the large mixing bowl along with all the remaining ingredients. Mix and mash together well, adding only as much liquid as needed to create a soft, moist loaf that holds together and is not runny (you may not need to add any liquid if the grains and protein are very moist). Add more binder/carbohydrate as needed if the loaf seems too wet.
4Press mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cooked through.
5Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes, then turn out onto a plate or platter and slice. Serve with potatoes, vegetables, and vegetarian gravy, if desired.

Recipe for mock meatloaf?
La Vie Boh
I want to try to make a mock meatloaf out of soy crumbles. Does anyone have a recipe that you have actually tried? I already know there are countless recipes on line but I'm looking for an already tried recipe that's tasty : )
Thanks!
caroline,
Have you tried that recipe? I've seen it online and the reviews suggest it falls apart and does not form because there is no binding agent.
I ended up finding one with Gimme Lean and made it last night. My omnivore hubby said it tasted like meatloaf LOL
Answer
I tried this and LOVED it:
Best Ever Vegan Mini Meatloaf
INGREDIENTS
Makes 10 mini meatloaves. Cut in half if you aren't feeding 3 growing boys.
- 2 8.5 oz pkgs tempeh, simmered in boiling water for 10 mins, cooled, then coarsely grated
- 1 large onion, coarsely grated
- 4 cloves garlic, finely grated
- 1 cup instant oatmeal
- 2/3 cup vital wheat gluten
- 2 tsp ground fennel seed
- 1 tsp sage
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp parsley
- 1 tsp marjoram
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp HP sauce
- 2 tbsp BBQ sauce
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp browning sauce (optional)
- 1/4 cup (or more) water
Glaze
- generous 2/3 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp mustard
METHOD
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 9 x 13 baking pan.
1. Mix grated tempeh, onion, garlic, oatmeal, flour, and spices in a large bowl. The spices are really up to you. I like a well spiced and complex flavour.
2. Add in sauces and oil, and enough water so you are able to mash everything up with your fingers. Knead/mush/mash for a few mins to mix everything well.
3. Divide dough into 10 pieces and shape into small loaves. Actually, they end up looking like lumps/rocks, not really laoves. Place into oiled pan.
4. Mix together ingredients for the glaze and spoon evenly on top of each loaf. Make sure the whole loaf is covered.
5. Bake, uncovered, for 50-60 mins, until glaze darkens.
