I asked recently what kind of plant based recipes you wanted to see in preparation for the holidays and overwhelmingly, people said that they’d love to see vegan main dish options. So today, I’m partnering up with Pure Farmland to bring you this especially straightforward and savory VEGAN meatloaf! It’s juicy and filling and I’m especially excited for you for this.

First up, I’d love to talk a bit about Pure Farmland as I’m *ridiculously* excited to be working with them AND to be introducing you to their products.

I had the honor of meeting the Pure Farmland team at a food blogging conference that I went to recently AND got to try their full line of products. I quickly fell in love and am so excited about these plant based options coming on the market.

One of the biggest hurdles people have that want to eat a more plant based diet is knowing what recipes to cook and how to still get enough protein. By simply swapping out the animal products for memorable options such as Pure Farmland® Plant- Based Simply Seasoned Protein Starters, you can cook the same recipes you’re used to which will make the transition SO MUCH easier.

Pure Farmland’s protein starters are dairy and gluten free and made of natural flavors which makes them DEPENDABLE for a good vegan meatloaf. They can be found in the refrigerated section at Kroger so be sure to pick some up next time you’re at the store!

I thought that a simple meatloaf would be reliable as a main dish for the holidays. It’s hearty and filling and unfussy to make plant based with the help of Pure Farmland® Plant- Based Simply Seasoned Protein Starters!

This vegan meatloaf would also pair well with all of the old-style thanksgiving side dishes:)

How for this plant based meatloaf

As I mentioned earlier, one of the big bonuses of this dish is that it’s ridiculously STRAIGHTFORWARD!

Start by sautéing the veggies for simply a few minutes so that they’re partially cooked and softened. After that, ALL of the ingredients, including the sautéed veggies, get mixed together in a large bowl. The meat mixture is then pressed into a loaf tin and topped with a bit of ketchup for a old-school taste. Then simply bake it for about 45 minutes and YOU’RE DONE!

I’m so excited to see you making these meatloaf AND to hear how you like Pure Farmland’s products! I’ve also tried their plant based breakfast patties AND the homestyle meatballs and they’re WORTH THE POT!
