And there are no lentils, mushrooms, or chickpeas needed!

This is seriously the best and easiest meatloaf I have ever tasted vegan or not!! And it’s made with Impossible Burger! It really does taste like real classic hamburger meatloaf but it’s made with plants! Comfort food at it's finest! Says me!!

We just got impossible burger in at our local Safeway in Canada and I bought 10 packs because I was afraid they would run out- haha! Yes I am obsessed with this product!

Meat eaters won’t have a clue that it’s vegan- Not kidding! And it makes a wonderful holiday main course for Thanksgiving, Christmas (October, November- December), Easter too in April!😊

Ingredients & substitutions for vegan meatloaf:

• Impossible Burger: this is the vegan ‘ground beef’. You can also use beyond meat, it was delicious too but quite greasy.
• Panko breadcrumbs and plant milk: mixed together this is the traditional way to add moisture to meatloaf.  Sometimes onions are added but I felt they were not needed. Can substitute veggie stock or water for plant milk. 
• Tomato paste: adds great flavour but you could easily swap it for ketchup or bbq sauce 
• Vegan Worcestershire Sauce: adds amazing flavour and is traditional in most meatloafs just make sure it’s vegan before purchasing. Here is a link to two of my favourite brands HERE & HERE. Could sub Braggs, Tamari or soya sauce regular or lite. I like recipe best as written tough!
• Fresh garlic: a little goes a long way in this recipe but is so good!
• Herbs and spices: fresh parsley, garlic, thyme, granulated onion and salt and pepper
• Glaze: ketchup, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Can sub half bbq sauce in place of ketchup for bbq meatloaf. Or leave off and serve meatloaf with gravy or mushroom gravy!
• For gluten free: use gluten free Panko breadcrumbs
