INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Green Lentils (198g)
2 Large Eggs (100g total)
1/2 cup Rolled Oats (40g)
2 Tbsp Tomato Paste (33g)
1/4 cup diced Onion (40g)
1 Garlic Clove (3g)
1 medium Carrot (61g)
1 medium Parsnip (80g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 tsp Dried Thyme
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a large bowl, mash the cooked lentils slightly with a fork, leaving some texture.
Stir in the beaten eggs, rolled oats, tomato paste, diced onion, minced garlic, and dried thyme. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Form the mixture into a loaf shape on a lightly greased baking tray or loaf pan.
Chop the carrot and parsnip into evenly sized pieces. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place the lentil loaf in the preheated oven and roast the chopped vegetables on a separate tray.
Bake the lentil loaf for 25-30 minutes, until firm and lightly browned. Roast the vegetables for about 20-25 minutes, until they are tender and crisp on the edges.
Allow the loaf to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve slices of the warm lentil loaf with the crispy roasted root vegetables.
