Back in the UK the Nut Loaf is like the Tofurkey in the US, it's the big rost all us veggies love to eat!

I have my mums Nut Loaf recipe up, and all converted into US measurments for any one wanting to give it a go....

Tofurky is a line of fake meat made from tofu, but tastes like turkey. they have a scary one that looks like a whole turkey, drumsticks skin et all for like thanksgiving and Xmas. Seems to be pretty big here in the US, but back in the Uk it's all about the nut loaf!!!

I will have to try this Nutt loaf.. I can not stand tofurkey and refuse to touch the stuff. But I still want something nice to cook for the family around the holidays

Reading through it now I will have to substitute a few things to make it vegan.. Have a few ideas but you got any as well?

There are quite a few different nut loaf recipies, this is just the one I have. There should be a few vegan ones, I'll have a look around.

I would think you could find something to substitute the egg since it's really just there as a binder, and the ricota is for a filling btween layers, so you could probably mix up just about anything to put in there?

yeah I was thinking the same thing... For the egg it might be a little weird but I was thinking a very small portion of Mollasses, and for the cheese, maybe some more of the nut butter pureed with some veggies or spices... Donno will have to experiment

Nut Butter would be perfect! If you couls come up with a thick sage sause or spread of some kind, I would imagine that could be quite good?
