Introduction

This is a modified version of a recipe in my favorite vegan cookbook (La Dolce Vegan!) I'm not a big fan of the taste of kale by itself, but since it is so nutritious I did some experimenting, and found that it is delicious when minced in a tofu loaf =)

Feel free to add or substitute ingredients with what you prefer or have on hand. This is so simple and delicious, you must try it!

Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    2 tbsp Olive Oil
    1 (14oz) block Extra-Firm Tofu
    1 clove Garlic (minced)
    3 tbsp Ketchup
    1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
    1 tbsp Tamari (or soy sauce)
    1 cup Kale (finely chopped)
    1/4 tsp Black Pepper
    1 tbsp Peanut Butter
    1 cup Carrots (thinly sliced)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350*F (175*C). Oil a 9 inch loaf pan with the olive oil (leaving some excess in the pan) and set aside.

2. Rinse and drain the tofu, squeeze with a few paper towels to remove excess water. Crumble it (with a food processor, your fingers, a big wooden spoon, your choice). Place the crumbled tofu into a large mixing bowl.

3. Toss the rest of the ingredients into the bowl and mix well. Pour into the loaf pan, pressing firmly and evenly.

4. Bake for 55-60 minutes, let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Yum!

Makes 6 servings.

    I A bit crumbly even after adding 1tbsp flour, but the flavour was wonderful. I topped it with Pumpking seeds before putting it in the oven and used red pepper instead of carrots. - 7/24/14
