par cook lentils while preparing everything else in about 3 cups of water

In heavy bottomed pan sautee chopped onions, minced garlic, finely chopped ginger in a bit of olive oil (or oil of your choice).
Add to it chopped red pepper, let cook for a few minutes.

When the lentils are half way cooked, add entire pot to the onion mixture, including the cooking water.

Mix well.

Dice finely 2 roma tomatoes and add to the pot.
finely dice the mushrooms and add to the pot.

Let simmer a few minutes.

stir in 6 tbsp of ground flax seed, and 1 cup of flour (this is my current solution to making it all stick together without using eggs or chemical egg substitutes).

Pack into two loaf pans, and place in a 400 degree oven for 60 minutes.

Makes 2 loaf pans worth, and about 8 - 10 servings.

Number of Servings: 8
