Nutty Harvest Loaf

"This is a savory meat-less loaf. It has an interesting mix of ingredients (potatoes, peanuts, mushrooms, cilantro, sun-dried tomatoes, plus more) and an interesting sauce (sour cream, tomato paste, honey, cilantro). Haven't tried it yet but thought it might be a good meatless meal - sounds filling."

directions

  • Grease a 1-lb loaf pan. Bring a pan of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the potatoes for 10 minutes, until cooked through. Drain well, mash, and set aside.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet. Add the onion and garlic and fry gently for 2-3 minutes, until soft.
  • Finely chop the nuts or process them in a food processor for 30 seconds with the breadcrumbs.
  • Mix the chopped nuts and breadcrumbs into the potatoes with the egg, cilantro, and stock. Stir in the onion and garlic and mix well.
  • Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet, add the sliced mushrooms, and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Press half of the potato mixture into the base of the loaf pan. Spoon the mushrooms on top and sprinkle with the sun-dried tomatoes. Spoon the remaining potato mixture on top and smooth the surface. Cover with foil and bake in a preheated oven at 350° for 1 hour, or until firm to the touch.
  • Meanwhile, mix the sauce ingredients together.
  • Turn out the loaf, cut into slices, and serve with the sauce.

  1. Takes a little time, but the results are well worth it!! I substituted cremini mushrooms for extra earthiness. This dish was excellent, especially for a bunch of vegetarians!! Thank you!

I've lived in several different places (Mississippi, New York, Germany, Montana, Georgia) because my husband was a military officer, but we decided to make Alabama our home after his military career. I've worked for the US Postal Service for the past 15 years and love my job! I've been married for 27 years to my best friend and have beautiful twin daughters (pictured below). One is an art major and musician (she plays viola, guitar, piano, drums, and has the voice of an angel). The other is a French major, Starbucks barista, and ballet dancer, formerly with Ballet Magnificat and now an apprentice with the contemporary ballet company, Arova. <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/22ndbd-1.jpg"> My biggest pet peeve? People who bash the Post Office. Given the resources it has the Post Office does a remarkable job. For less than 50¢ someone will come to your house, pick up a letter and deliver it to the other side of the country in a few days time. What a bargain! The majority of postal workers I know are dedicated hard-working employees who take pride in their jobs. Just like in any company/organization you will find some slackers but the reason so much is heard about bad service or bad employees in USPS is because the Post Office is one of the only agencies that touches every American's life. Anytime you have a service problem, instead of just complaining to your friends & family, ask to speak to the postmaster/station manager. If you don't get the result you want write a letter to your congressman. All congressional inquiries are promptly addressed. The fact is that most people find it easier to complain and do nothing rather than do what needs to be done to address the issue. <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/romans.jpg"> Here are some of my absolute favorite recipes that I've found on Zaar and that my family enjoys: FAVORITE QUICK LUNCH: RECIPE#47504 FAVORITE SNACK: RECIPE#291689 FAVORITE CHICKEN SALAD: RECIPE#192150 FAVORITE SOUP: RECIPE#201592 FAVORITE "UNUSUAL" RECIPE: RECIPE#19103 FAVORITE POTATO RECIPE (tie): RECIPE#15280 AND RECIPE#44819 FAVORITE "MAKES YOUR VEGETABLES TASTE LIKE DESSERT" RECIPE: RECIPE#78204 FAVORITE SIMPLE RECIPE: RECIPE#107411 FAVORITE MIXED VEGGIE RECIPE (tie): RECIPE#183613 AND RECIPE#365501 FAVORITE MEATLOAF (tie): RECIPE#313588 AND RECIPE#329333 FAVORITE RECIPE USING BROCCOLI: RECIPE#9497 FAVORITE COPYCAT RECIPE: RECIPE#123522 FAVORITE RECIPE USING SMOKED PAPRIKA: RECIPE#205225 FAVORITE RECIPE USING FRESH BASIL: RECIPE#276657 FAVORITE PORK ROAST (tie): RECIPE#18058 AND RECIPE#116208 FAVORITE DO-AHEAD BREAKFAST: RECIPE#155945 FAVORITE BARBECUE: RECIPE#293823 FAVORITE FUDGE: RECIPE#76617 FAVORITE RECIPE USING BLUEBERRIES (tie): RECIPE#135198 AND RECIPE#307009 <B>SWAPS</B> <img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/154044/ShoeboxMysterySwap09Banner_02.JPG> Partner: S_Mama0608 <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/banners/candyswap.jpg"> Partner: mandabears <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/banners/CookbookAug09.jpg"> Partner: Chef nanaof6 <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/banners/Regional.jpg"> Partner: Jamilah's Kitchen <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/banners/honeyMar09.jpg"> Partner: ~Rita~ <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/banners/CookbookFeb09.jpg"> Partner: QueenBee49444 <img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee299/mailbelle/food/banners/HerbandSpiceSwap.jpg"> Partner: JackieOhNo!
