Servings: 6
Calories: 233kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Large Potatoes peeled and diced
- 1 Large Leek
- 1 Large Broccoli
- 6 Large Carrots
- 4 Celery Sticks
- 1 Bag Fresh Spinach
- 2 Cups Gluten Free Oats
- 1 Tbsp Soft Cheese
- 1 Tbsp Garlic Puree
- 1 Tsp Mustard Powder
- 1 Tbsp Thyme
- 1 Tbsp Oregano
- Salt & Pepper
Instructions
- In a steamer add your potatoes along with a little salt and pepper.
- In a food processor shred all your vegetables and then place them in a large mixing bowl.
- In a mixing bowl add your shredded vegetables, potatoes, oats and seasoning. Mix well and form into a big loaf.
- In your slow cooker add your loaf to the bottom on top of a tablespoon of olive oil as this will stop it from sticking.
- Cook for 3 hours on a low heat. When it is ½ way through cooking add your cheese to the top as well as an extra sprinkling of salt and pepper.
- Serve.
Notes
I find that its important that you limit the amount of watery vegetables to your meatloaf otherwise it will become runny like a soup. I have used spinach as my one watery vegetable so make sure you have a maximum of 15% runny vegetables. If you don’t like spinach you could exchange this for either courgette or cauliflower to have some moisture to the dish.
