Lentil Loaf

This is a lentil-bean loaf topped with sesame seeds and cheese if desired. Originally from the Laural's Kitchen cookbook, but has been modified over time.

Serves 4

1/2 onion chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cups cooked brown lentils (1 scant cup dry to 3 cups water; simmer 45 min. Save broth)
1/2 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1/2 tsp sage
2 tbsp whole wheat flour
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup lentil broth
2 tbsp cider vinegar
4 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

(optional: some sesame oil, provolone cheese or other white cheese)

Saute onion until translucent.

Mix all ingredients (including sesame oil if desired) except sesame seeds and cheese. Place in a greased loaf pan coated with cooking spray.

Sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

Bake 30 minutes @ 350*, 10 minutes uncovered. During last 10 minutes, add cheese if desired.
