I made a version of a meatloaf while L was away at camp because she really doesn't like it.
I made another version last night. I think I turned out pretty good
2 medium carrots, chopped
1 small onion chopped
1-2 ribs of celery chopped
1-2 cloves garlic chopped
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp tomato paste
2 Cups cooked kidney beans
1 cup cooked small white beans
1-1.5 Cups cooked quinoa
Sage about 4 large leaves
Thyme about 8 sprigs, leaves stripped
Oregano about 1-2 Tbsp finely chopped
Salt about 1/2 tsp or to taste
pepper
About 1/4 cup flaxseed ground or flaxseed meal
Saute the onion, garlic carrots and celery in the oil. When soft transfer to a food processor to chop into a paste. Add beans to food processor.
Transfer to a bowl to mix in the quinoa, herbs, salt pepper, and flaxseed meal. Let sit for 5 minutes while you prepare the loaf pan (spray with oil) and preheat the oven to 425. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until browning on the top.
It was still a little mushy, but mostly kept it's shape.
