Mushroom Loaf

By Mike_67

This recipe takes over 2 hours to prepare.

Ingredients

• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
• 16 ounces Golden mushrooms, sliced
• 3 cups fresh breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon fresh herbs
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon Chipotle pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 8 ounces grated Cheddar cheese
• 2 plum tomato, sliced

Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, sauté the onion in the oil for 5 minutes. Stir in the chopped pepper and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until all liquid is absorbed.

Add the sliced mushrooms and cook gently until they soften; 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the breadcrumbs and herbs and mix well. Fold in the beaten egg. Season with salt and Chipotle pepper; fold in the cheese.

Spoon the mixture into a well-greased 2-pound loaf pan and press down well. Bake in 350°F oven for 20 minutes. Arrange the tomato slices on top and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

Allow the roast to cool for 15 minutes before lifting it out carefully and slice using a very sharp knife.

Serve with fat-free brown gravy
