All hail to the mighty mock meatloaf! This is one of my husband's favorite recipes & it has been tested on omni's! Meaning, my parents and in-laws really liked it. I believe the original recipe (that I adapted) comes courtesy of COK.

Vegan Meatloaf
1 package Gimme Lean Beef Style
3 tbsp Ketchup
2 tbsp Yellow Mustard
1 tbsp horseradish - optional
1 small onion, minced (really chop those onions!)
1 tsp salt
1 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1/4 cup soy or rice milk
1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce - optional
1 tbsp dry basil

5 tbsp Ketchup, optional topping

Preheat 350 F
1. Place large sheet of foil in bread pan (enough to make a tent)
2. Mix 3/4 cup bread crumbs with other ingredients.
3. Add another 1/4 cup crumbs if you want the meatloaf a bit firmer
4. Place meatloaf in bread pan
5. Optional: Cover top with extra ketchup if desired
6. Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes (until outside is browned/firm and inside is not loose)

Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients:
4 red potatoes (or two brown potatoes)
Fat free soymilk or other non-dairy
2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion flakes
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
1.    Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
2.    Meanwhile, cube potatoes (I leave the skins on for added nutrients and texture).
3.    Add potatoes to the boiling water and cook until the potatoes are tender.
4.    Drain potatoes and return to the pot.
5.    Add a splash of soymilk, garlic powder and onion flakes.
6.    Using an electronic mixer, whip mashed potatoes,
7.    Add more soy milk as needed to achieve desired consistency.
