Basic Roast Blueprint

Meat - Various - -

INGREDIENTS

2 cups protein stuff: kidney beans, lentils, garbanzo beans, fake meat, tofu, soy beans etc.
1 cup carbohydrate stuff: dried bread crumbs, uncooked oatmeal, cooked rice, crushed cereal flakes, wheat germ etc.
1/2 cup nuts, chopped or ground: raw peanuts, cashews, almonds, walnuts etc.
1 t arrowroot mixed with 1 t water
1 to 1 1/2 cups liquid; tomato sauce/juice, vegetarian broth, or soy milk
1/4 sweet basil
Some spike
2 T vegetable oil

METHOD

Just mix it all together really well and slap into a greased loaf pan. Bake for about 45 minutes at 450F/230C. Serve it with some gravy and dole it out to them starving dinner guests.

NOTES

Roasts are really swell and can be hearty enough to feed the most demanding people. Have fun, and try to create the deadly meatloaf your Aunt Flo used to force on you every Sunday. You can pretty much make a roast out anything. I was once in a bind and had to use a box of granola and a can of shoe polish. It didn't work so well
