Prep: 15 mins   |   Cook: 55 mins   |   Total: 70 mins

 

Ingredients

1lb (453g) of lean ground chicken or ground protein of your choice

½ medium onion chopped

2 tsp of vegetable oil

1 stalk of celery chopped

8oz (227g) of crimini mushrooms

½ tsp of salt

2 tsp of worcestershire sauce

⅛ tsp of black pepper

½ cup of oat flour (grind the whole oats in the blender, or coffee grinder [not used for coffee, great for flax or chia] to make the flour – use gluten-free oats if needed)

3oz (90g) of mozzarella cheese sticks (optional)

 

Prep

Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Grease an 8×11-inch (20x28cm) baking dish.

In a medium skillet, heat the oil, add the onions and celery and cook for 2 minutes. While the onions and celery are cooking, using a food processor, finely chop the mushrooms. Add the mushrooms to the onions and celery and cook for another 2 minutes or until the mushrooms start releasing water. Let the vegetables cool. In a medium bowl add the cooked vegetables and all the remaining ingredients, except the cheese. Mix well. 

Pour all the mixture in the prepared dish and form a loaf 10-inch long. Carefully open the loaf with your hands and place the cheese sticks in the middle. Close the loaf and bake for 50 minutes or until a minimum internal temperature of 160ºF (71ºC) is reached. Enjoy!
