- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- Rinse the lentils under cold water, then combine with water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the lentils are tender. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion for about 5 minutes until soft, then add the garlic and mushrooms. Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes until the mushrooms release their moisture and are browned.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked lentils and the mushroom mixture. Add the rolled oats, breadcrumbs, soy sauce, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, flaxseed mixture, thyme, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and press it down firmly. Spread the ketchup evenly over the top of the loaf.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes until the loaf is set and the top is slightly browned. Let it cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
