parsnip and cashew nut loaf
It's a great recipe - I love it. It's from Sarah Brown's Vegetarian kitchen. 1 tbs oil 1 small onion, finely chopped 2 cloves of garlic, crushed 8ozs cashew nuts 4ozs breadcrumbs 1 egg 3 medium parsnips, cooked and mashed with a little butter 1 teas fresh rosemary or half a teaspoon dried 1 teas fresh thyme or half a teas dried 1 teas yeast extract quarter pint hot water or stock salt and freshly ground black pepper 1oz butter 8ozs mushrooms, chopped butter for greasing tin Preheat oven to 350F Heat the oil and fry the onion and garlic until soft. Grind the cashew nuts, then mix with the breadcrumbs. Beat the egg and add it to the dry ingredients, then mix in the mashed parsnips and herbs. Add the fried onion, being sure to scrape the pan so that all the juices go in as nut roasts can sometimes be a bit dry Dissolve the yeast extract in hot water or stock and add to the other ingredients. Season well. Melt the butter in the frying pan and sauté the chopped mushrooms until soft. Grease a 2lb loaf tin with butter, then press in half the nut mixture. Cover with a layer of mushrooms and top with the rest of the nut mixture. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour. When cooked, remove the loaf from the oven and let it stand for 10 minutes before turning it out. Serve hot or cold.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup cashews 2 TB olive oil One onion, diced One large garlic clove, minced One large carrot, peeled and grated Two celery ribs, diced 2 cups cooked lentils 1 cup cooked brown rice 1/4 to 1/2 cup vegetable broth, as needed 2 TB soy flour 1/4 tsp. dried thyme 1/2 tsp. dried sage 1 tsp. dried basil 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley 1/4 tsp. dried oregano 1/4 tsp. dried rosemary 1 tsp. ground cumin Freshly ground black pepper, to taste 2 TB soy sauce
Directions:
Preheat 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).
Grind the cashews into a coarse meal using a food processor or spice/coffee grinder. Place in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Sauté any vegetables you've chosen in the olive oil 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.
Press mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cooked through.
Let 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.
Cold leftover slices of make a great sandwich filling.

Found this one too.Again, I haven't made it but I am collecting vege loaf recipes I can freeze.Trying to get some variety in my cooking.
Lentil and Rice loaf • Ingredients • 1 cup lentils • 1/2 cup brown rice • 1/2 cup wild rice • 3 cups vegetable broth (more or less) • 2 tablespoons olive oil • 1 red onion • 3 garlic cloves, crushed • 1 large carrot, shredded • 1/2 bunch broccoli, chopped small and steamed • 1/2 cup cashews, roasted • basil • salt and pepper Directions: Prep Time: 30 mins Total Time: 2 hrs 1.Put lentils, brown and wild rice and veggie broth in a covered pan. Get it boiling on a higher heat and then turn down to low and cook until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed, but the result is still somewhat wet and mushy, not dry. This will be approximately an hour. I usually watch this as it's cooking and add more broth as needed. 2 While lentils and rice are cooking, heat oil in a separate pan and saute onions, garlic and carrot. Add steamed broccoli, cook another minute and then season with basil, salt and pepper to taste. This will be mixed with the other ingredients, so you'll want to be a bit generous with the spices. 3 Add the lentil/rice mixture to the vegetable mixture when both are done. Add cashews. Mix everything together well. 4 Put mixture into a greased loaf pan. 5 Bake at 350 for 30 minutes covered and 15 minutes uncovered. 6 Serve with Cashew Gravy.

I hope so blt.I'm planning on making them in the 8 cup mini loaf tins so I don't have to plough through a big loaf. Cooking for one can be a challenge.
