Vegetarian Tofu and Nut Loaf image

This meatloaf has a lot of flavor and is very satisfying if you are craving protein. My husband and I, both vegetarians, made this for my brother, a hunter and meat-enthusiast, and he really liked it. The best thing about this meatloaf is the next day when I can have a cold meatloaf sandwich with mayonnaise.

A delicious loaf that's healthy too. Nice cold as well. You can use a mixture of any nuts such as almonds, cashews or hazelnuts etc. When I made the loaf I used a mixture of pistachio nuts and walnuts and that worked really well.
