Tofu Loaf Recipes

Steps:

• First, preheat oven to 350°F.
• Put all the ingredients in a food processor, except for the carrot and celery. Blend until smooth.
• Add the carrot and celery, and blend in the tofu mixture.
• Put in a loaf pan and bake for one hour.
• You can also put ketchup on top of the loaf.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix all ingredients together.
• Put 1/4 cup oil in a loaf pan, then press the mixture into the pan.
• Bake for about 1 hour.
• Let cool 10-15 minutes before trying to remove from pan.
• Garnish with ketchup and parsley. Also good sliced and fried for sandwiches the next day.

Steps:

• Combine tomato paste, water, wine, garlic, basil, oregano, and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and and reduce the heat to low. Simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes, then set aside.
• Wash and sort through the lentils, removing any sticks, pebbles, etc. and bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Lower the heat and cook the lentils, loosely covered, for about 20 minutes or until soft but not disintegrating. Drain any excess water.
• While the lentils are cooking, make the tofu "ground beef" by draining it very well and drying it off with paper towels, then (here comes the fun part), smash it into a bunch of pieces, so it has a ground beef or scrambled egg like consistency.
• Mix the tofu pieces in a bowl with the pepper (I just shake some on, roughly 1/2 tsp), olive oil, and soy sauce. Brown in a frying pan/skillet for a couple minutes until it somewhat resembles ground beef and let cool for a few minutes.
• Combine the cooked lentils, crumbled and cooked tofu, breadcrumbs, zucchini, egg whites, and about 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce in a large bowl and mix well.
• Shape the mixture into a loaf and place into an ungreased 9 x 5 loaf pan. Bake at 350F for 45 minutes.
• Pour the remaining tomato sauce mix over the top of the loaf, and bake for another 15 minutes.
• Place onto a serving plate and let cool for about 10 minutes before cutting into 8 slices and serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9 inch square baking dish.
• In a bowl, mix the tofu, turkey, bread crumbs, soup mix, green pepper, and eggs. Place the mixture into the prepared pan, and mold into a loaf shape.
• In a saucepan over low heat, blend the brown sugar, soy sauce, and mustard.
• Bake the meatloaf 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Drizzle with the sauce mixture, and continue baking 15 minutes, or to an internal temperature of 180 degrees F (80 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a (9-inch) loaf pan with cooking spray; set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, carrot, garlic and parsley and cook until softened and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, wrap tofu in 3 or 4 layers of paper towels and gently press out as much water as possible, changing the paper towels once or twice as needed. Crumble tofu into a food processor and then add bread crumbs, egg, ketchup, tamari and Worcestershire and purée until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in onion mixture. Spoon tofu mixture into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake, uncovered, until deep golden brown and firm to the touch, about 1 hour. For easier slicing, set aside to let cool until warm.

Steps:

• Drain off excess water from tofu. In a food processor or with a potato masher, crumble tofu avoiding any large lumps. Add the vegetable bullion along with 1 tsp each of the sage, rosemary and savory and 1 tbsp of the maple syrup, mix well.
• Line a medium sized colander with cheese cloth, fill with tofu mixture. Cover the tofu mixture with a plate topped with a five lb weight (generally a few good sized tomato cans will do the trick). Leave tofu to press for at least three hours in the fridge.
• In the mean time, prepare your stuffing.
• Preheat Oven to 375 degrees.
• Combine remaining ingredients (except for the stuffing) in a bowl, whisk together and set aside. After three hours remove the plate and weight from the tofu. Using a spoon, hollow out the tofu leaving a one inch shell. Fill shell with stuffing (Don't Overfill! The stuffing should only be inside the shell, not spilling over onto the sides) and cover with the extracted tofu. Pack the tofu layer down, then turn colander right-side up onto a deep baking sheet.
• Cover tofu loaf with half of the sauce mixture, being sure to spread the mustard grains evenly over the surface. Bake until golden brown (about 1 hour 15 min), basting with remaining mixture after the first 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Drain tofu and mash.
• Combine all ingredients and mix well.
• Place in a loaf pan coated with oil.
• Bake at 350F for one hour.
• Cool in pan for 15 minutes.
• Garnish with ketchup, BBQ sauce, and/or chopped parsley.
• When cold, can be sliced for sandwiches.
