The BEST Thanksgiving Meatloaf with Cranberries

🌱Recipe from @avirtualvegan

🤤I have made this recipe for the holidays for years now and it never disappoints - I HAD to share this recipe with you guys!!

Here’s how to make it!

✨INGREDIENTS✨
2 cups cranberries
1/4 cup sugar
1 white onion, finely diced
5 cloves garlic
1 cup cooked green lentils
2 mock meat burgers - I use @beyondmeat (or to omit mock meat add in another cup of lentils)
3 cups chopped mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup ground flax
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 packed cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
1/2 a large apple, grated
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp Rosemary
1 tsp sage
1 tbsp soy sauce

🤤 Add the cranberries to a pot and cook over medium heat for a few minutes until the skins start blistering. Then spread them out inside a greased & lined baking tray.

🎉Chop up your veg and add all of the rest of the ingredients into a large bowl.

🥄Use your hands to mix everything together then pack down the meatloaf on top of the cranberries in three batches, making sure the mix is patted down well.

🔥 Bake at 375f for 60-70 minutes until the top is golden. Flip it out, slice & enjoy!

🙌 Best of all this meatloaf stays warm for one hour after cooking, just wrap it in tin foil and bring it to your family gathering!!

🤯You can also make the loaf in advance, store it in the fridge and bake it the day of! Just allow for an extra 10-15 minutes of baking time!

💜You have to make this for the holidays!!!!
