Almond Sesame Nut Roast With Mushroom Onion Sauce
This is from a vegetarian cookbook - which is probably out of print - called cooking for today simple vegetarian recipes" published by whitecap books... I've tried lots of different "meat" loaves and they all sucked - mostly i think b/c they contain tofu. I love tofu - but i don't think it belongs in "meat" loaf. This roast/loaf turned out really delicious. I made it for a dinner party and everyone loved it - and they said it went good especially with the mushroom sauce... I'm allergic to mushrooms and ate my slices with ketchup - it was still loverly :)"
