TVP "Meet" Loaf

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 1/2 cups TVP
    1 1/2 cups boiling vegetable broth
    3 tablespoons dried minced onion, rehydrated in water
    1 tablespoon dried parsley
    1 tablespoon Italian spice mix
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
    4 ounces portabella mushrooms, diced
    2 teaspoons Ener-G Egg Replacer, mixed with 2 tablespoons water
    1 cup breadcrumbs
    1/4 cup ketchup

Directions:

1) Mix TVP with boiling vegetable stock in a medium-sized bowl; let sit for 10 minutes or until all liquid has been absorbed.  Combine all ingredients except ketchup in bowl and pour into loaf pan or baking dish. 

2) Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 35 to 40 minutes.  Spread ketchup over top of loaf and bake an additional 10 minutes.  Cool for 5 to 10 minutes.  Serve with more ketchup on the side, if desired.
