Meatless “Meatloaf” Sandwiches
Vegetarian Times Issue: April 1, 2007 p.44
Poultry seasoning is a savory blend of sage, thyme, marjoram, pepper and sometimes cloves, which adds hearty flavor.
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Grind walnuts to powder in food processor. Set aside. Coat medium skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Add celery, onion, green onions and garlic, and sauté 4 to 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Remove from heat, and cool.
- Mash tofu in bowl. Stir in walnuts, vegetables, soy crumbles, oats, soy sauce, ketchup, mustard, parsley and poultry seasoning. Season with salt and pepper.
- Coat 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray and spoon mixture into pan, lightly packing in. Spread thin layer of ketchup over top of loaf, and bake 55 to 60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to slice for sandwiches.

I really like this recipe but - like almost every recipe I encounter - I've never made it as is. The tofu & the crumbles just seems like too much soy to me. I replace the tofu with mushrooms & increase the walnuts to about 1/2 cup. I also never have quick cooking oats, so I just give regular oats a whirl in the mini food processor if I have time. If not, I use the regular oats & it's fine. Oh! And I add one or 2 eggs to bind it. Great recipe though - goes fast in our house.
