meatless loaf

Plant-based entrée block

A meatless loaf is a vegetarian dish shaped like a traditional meatloaf but made without meat—typically using lentils, beans, nuts, grains, or vegetables as the base.

Like its meaty counterpart, it's baked in a loaf pan and often glazed: The meatless loaf was surprisingly satisfying.
