INGREDIENTS
150g cooked green lentils
30g vital wheat gluten
15g walnuts
50g mixed veggies (onion, carrot, celery, garlic)
100g broccoli
80g cauliflower
5g olive oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked green lentils, vital wheat gluten, walnuts, and finely chopped mixed veggies. Season with your favorite herbs and spices (such as thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper) to taste.
Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated. Transfer the mixture into a small loaf pan lined with parchment paper, pressing it firmly into an even layer.
Bake the loaf for about 25-30 minutes until it holds together and is lightly browned on top. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
While the loaf is baking, prepare the sides. Toss the broccoli florets with a little salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Roast them on a baking sheet in the oven for about 15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
For the garlic mash, steam or boil the cauliflower until very tender. In a bowl, mash the cauliflower with a small amount of roasted garlic (or minced raw garlic lightly sautéed) and a dash of olive oil, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate a generous slice of the lentil walnut loaf alongside the roasted broccoli and garlic mashed cauliflower. Enjoy this balanced, protein-rich dinner!
