This sounds so delicious,BUT...my body reacts very badly to all things tomato! Can you suggest any substitutes, especially for the glaze topping. What would happen if I left the tomato paste out of the loaf?
I would appreciate any suggestions.

My very first time making a lentil meatloaf! New to fully plant based eating. The flavors were spot on! The texture I am not quite in love with. I did have to make a couple small modifications as I didn't have enough bread crumbs so added rolled oats. Sauted veggies in broth so added a "flax egg". I will definitely make again and perhaps add another 1/4 cp of lentils and make my own whole grain panko to add a little more protein. I just had white on hand. I will try just mashing by hand instead of in food processor. It will give me a little exercise! Thank you for the great recipe!

Could I sub chick pea flour or ground flax seed for like 1/2 cup of the bread crumbs, to add a little more protein/nutrients?

In reply to Christi. Yes, you can, I would just x3 the batch. If the casserole dish is shallower than a loaf pan, it will take less time to bake.

If I wanted to make this for a large crowd, could I use a 9x13 glass pan? What would need to be altered in the recipe?

In reply to LaToya. I'm sure that would be fine!

Have you ever used can lentils in the recipe? I was thinking of using them to cut back on time.

I enjoyed making this Recipe! I wanted a pretty simple Recipe! I also didn't want to use a food processor. I mashed up half with a potato masher. It came out great! It held together perfectly. My Mum and friend loved it. What a hearty and delicious meal! I love Mushrooms and they certainly enhanced this Lentil Loaf!

Great recipe! I made it today with double amount of ingredients because I have a bigger tin. This vegan meatloaf is delicious! I served it with steamed broccoli and your mushroom gravy which is also yummy! Thanks for sharing your recipes!

In reply to Cecile MacMillan. Red lentils have quite a different texture than brown lentils and I'm afraid it might make this loaf kinda gummy and dense.

Can I use Red lentils in this recipe? Thank you for your time! Can’t wait to taste it!

Didnt work for me. I did forget the tin foil and the loaf is mushy.

In reply to Amanda. Yes, I would just reduce the amount by about 30% since aminos tend to be saltier.

Do you think this would work well with coconut aminos subbed in place of the soy sauce?
