Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups beets
  • 2 cups shredded carrots
  • ¾ cup chopped walnuts
  • ½ cup chopped onions
  • ½ cup steel-cut oats

  • 1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon everything bagel seasoning
  • 2 dashes liquid aminos (such as Bragg®)
  • ½ cup ketchup, or as needed

Cooking Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 2-quart casserole dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Combine beets, carrots, walnuts, onions, oats, and bread crumbs in a large bowl.
  3. Beat eggs, parsley, bagel seasoning, and liquid aminos in a smaller bowl. Mix into the veggie mixture and stir to combine. Transfer to the prepared casserole dish and top with ketchup.
  4. Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, depending on how moist or dry you want it.
This simple recipe can include other vegetables you have on hand, like mushrooms and sweet potatoes. You can use any nuts you like as well. I used plain bread crumbs but you could use flavored ones; If you want to make it vegan, replace the eggs with a can of beans or lentils, or use an egg substitute; As far as seasoning, I like it plain and simple, but you can follow your favorite meatloaf recipe and use traditional flavors like Worcestershire sauce, mustard, oregano, and garlic.
