Food Monday ~ Lazy Nut Loaf
When a Toyboy asks, how can I refuse?
Conor asked for more vegetarian recipes so today I have a simple nut loaf. I do have another more elaborate one but will keep it until later in the year.
Lazy Nut Loaf
Preheat oven to 180°C
1 Small Onion
8ozs Mixed Nuts

Looks delicious! Grannymar
I like having free rein when it comes to a ‘dash’ of sherry!
Did you mean such a high temp oven? I would have expected to cook it on medium over that length of time?

Morning Steph,
I reduced the temp to 180°C and think that might be low enough.

Sounds good! GM
We don’t want things getting too hot and steamy in the kitchen! *cough*

Grannymar,
I saw a piece with the founder of this website in Saturday’s FT,
http://www.toyboywarehouse.com/
It would give you a guaranteed supply of recipe requests.

I like easy dishes and have been cooking a lot more vegetarian dishes lately so I will keep this one up my sleeve (so to speak)!
