Okay, all you vegetarian-mockers, here's your chance. ;-)

I made the "meat"loaf at
http://www.fatfreevegan.com/Meat_subs/loaf.shtml today, and everyone
liked it, even my wife, who really really really prefers to eat meat at
every meal. She said it hits the same spot as meatloaf. I'm reposting
the recipe here with my changes in brackets. I served it with mashed
potatoes and mushroom gravy.

"Meat" Loaf

Serves 6

2 cups of prepared veg broth [I used a delicate ginger-garlic broth I
made the other day]
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tbsp tamari (or soy sauce)
2 cups of TVP granules
1 cup of quick oats or bread crumbs [I didn't realize I was out of
these, so I used 2 wheetabix, which equalled almost a cup, and made up
the rest of the cup with Grapenuts cereal. In my experience, anything
grain- or bread-like works in meatloaf]
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1 tblsp of nutritional yeast
1 tsp each garlic granules, onion powder, oregano and basil [didn't have
basil, so I left it out]

(BBQ topping option: 1/3 cup unsweetened ketchup, 2 tbls tamari, a good
shake of liquid smoke) [I skipped this]

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

1. In medium bowl, combine prepared broth, ketchup, tamari and TVP. Mix
to combine and let stand 10 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.

2. Add remaining ingredients, except topping. Mix well

3. Pack mixture into a 9 x 5 loaf pan or a glass casserole. (Many people
making this suggest just forming into a loaf on a baking sheet.) Bake
40-45 minutes.

4. If using topping, spread on loaf during the last 10 minutes of
baking.
