    I love using ground beef substitutes in meatloaf and shepards pie. Using ground flaxseed as a binding agent and coursely ground oats as breadcrumbs has made for some excellent dinner dates!

      Lentils make for a great meat replacement in a Shepard’s Pie. You adjust seasonings a bit, but at this point I might actually prefer it to regular ol’ Shepard’s Pie.

      Tried a vegan ground meat from my local Lidl and it was easily one of the worst things. Terrible taste and smell, nothing like meat at all and my kitchen stank for weeks. Really put me off of a lot of those meat substitutes, especially since it was so highly praised.

        What brand? Impossible and Beyond brands are pretty good (though you have to compensate for a lack of intrinsic oils when cooking).
