Lentil Walnut Loaf with Garlic Green Beans
Oven-baked lentil and tofu loaf seasoned with savory herbs and walnuts, served with a side of garlic-sautéed green beans that are perfectly tender-crisp.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked brown lentils
120g extra firm tofu, drained
0.5 oz chopped walnuts
3 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tbsp ground flaxseed
200g fresh green beans
1 clove minced garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a small loaf pan with parchment paper.
Pulse the cooked lentils, tofu, walnuts, and nutritional yeast in a food processor until the mixture is well combined but still retains some texture.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the ground flaxseed along with a pinch of sea salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.
Press the lentil mixture firmly into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden and the loaf feels set.
While the loaf is baking, trim the green beans and sauté them in a non-stick skillet with minced garlic and a splash of water until they reach a tender-crisp consistency.
Allow the loaf to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving alongside the warm garlic green beans.
