I doubled the recipe and my loaves fell apart, I'm guessing because I had too much liquid. (It's hard to drain that much.) Might have also been because I fudged the lentil measurement because I soaked them overnight before I looked at the recipe that measured them dry. Tasted good to me, but the presentation didn't quite make it past the kids, and they are quit visually influenced.Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00474978485925349582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468302859825963031.post-65134770807118656622010-04-02T13:04:06.251-07:002010-04-02T13:04:06.251-07:00I take it back, this tastes real.

But the second time since I used homemade bread, I just rubbed the pieces together and they just crumbled into tiny pieces. That made all the difference. The texture and taste are so yummy.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742195103810186475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468302859825963031.post-76448353753858070492010-03-04T19:53:05.687-08:002010-03-04T19:53:05.687-08:00I made this, and just for a review for others, it ...I made this, and just for a review for others, it doesn't taste "real." We're still getting into the vegetarian thing, and eat meat sometimes, so we remember what real meat loaf tastes like. But it's pretty close, especially the flavor. Mostly the texture is different. But still a great alternative, because I hate to give up meat loaf.

You could try an egg substitute, like flax seeds. And it does make a large loaf, so the cholesterol is spread out. Still much more healthful than meat.Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06926609923426435489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468302859825963031.post-30245793846738342872009-09-10T17:28:41.836-07:002009-09-10T17:28:41.836-07:00I can't wait to try this.
