Does anyone have a good Nut Roast recipe?
I'm not sure I've ever made a nut roast! I do like them though.
Perhaps you could make your own recipe using this:

You just choose your preferred ingredients (protein, carb, nuts/seeds, etc)
and it makes the recipe for you.

I have never had nut roast, tho I am going to try it this year. I found
this recipe in the Washington Post- they had a feature on a vegetarian
dinner party.
Ingredients
4 tablespoons vegan margarine
2 large onions, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 cup water
1 cup finely ground cashews
1 cup finely ground Brazil nuts or hazelnuts
1 1/3 cups dried bread crumbs, plus 2 tablespoons for coating
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil or vegetable oil
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, melt margarine. Add onions and
cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the thyme and flour, and
cook an additional minute. Add water and stir another minute, until
thickened. Remove mixture from heat and add nuts, 1 1/3 cups bread
crumbs, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
With wet hands, form the mixture into a loaf (add a tablespoon or two of
water, if necessary, to form the loaf). Sprinkle a cutting board with 1
tablespoon bread crumbs. Place the loaf on top, and coat with the
remaining tablespoon bread crumbs.
Pour oil into a baking dish and heat it in the oven for 15 minutes or
until it starts to smoke. Remove the pan from the oven and put the nut
loaf into the pan with the hot oil. Use a spoon to baste the nut loaf
with the oil. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until evenly browned. Serve in
thick slices, as you would a meatloaf.
Makes 4 to 6 servings.
