Meatless loaf - wheat free recipe

This meatless loaf recipe is a tasty alternative for non-meat eaters. Why not try it instead of traditional meat loaf for a change?

450-500	g	tofu (firm), mashed
100	g	oats
100	g	tomato ketchup
75	ml	tamari (wheat/gluten free soy sauce)
1	medium	onion, finely chopped
4	tbsp	parsley, finely chopped
2		garlic cloves, finely chopped
2	tbsp	dijon mustard (check wheat/gluten free)
1	tsp	olive oil
¼	tsp	black pepper, freshly ground

1.	Mash the tofu, a potato masher works well for this. Alternatively mix in a food processer.

2.	Add all of the other ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or process until well combined.

3.	Spoon into a 1lb loaf tin, either oiled or lined with baking parchment. Press mixture down, it will be quite spongey so won't compress very much.

4.	Bake for 1 hour then remove from oven and allow to cool in the tin for 15 minutes. After the resting time place a plate over the top of the tin and turn the tin and plate upside down to release the meatless loaf onto the plate.

5.	Slice with a sharp knife and serve hot or cold.

As an alternative to the oats, wheat/gluten free breadcrumbs could be used to make the meatless loaf gluten free, or use gluten free oats.
