If you’re looking for good vegetarian dishes, this vegetarian “meatloaf” is perfect for you. The ingredients are great for you and it tastes just as good as any meatloaf does. This dish is made with lentils, red beans and delicious spices that bring out all the flavors. I made it for my family this weekend, and even though they’re not vegetarian, they really enjoyed it. I served it with mashed potatoes, but you can serve it with pasta or salads. I’m sure you’ll enjoy this flavorful vegetarian meatloaf enough to start making it at home often.
