Directions Thanksgiving Lentil Loaf
Directions
-
Bring water and lentils to a boil on a saucepan, reduce heat and simmer until lentils are tender, adding more water if needed, 35 to 40 minutes.
Spray an 8-inch square glass baking dish with cooking spray.
Drain lentils and beat with an electric mixer until mostly smooth, cool slightly.
Mix oats, onion, Colby-Jack cheese, dried cranberries, poultry seasoning, and seasoned salt together in a large bowl. Mix 1 1/2 cups cranberry sauce and egg substitute together in a separate bowl, stir into oats mixture. Slowly stir cooled lentil puree into oats mixture until evenly combined. Spread mixture into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon.
Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove plastic wrap from baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Spoon 3/4 cup cranberry sauce over loaf and continue baking until loaf is cooked through, about 15 minutes more.
