Instructions

For the Meatloaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 baking dish and set aside.
  2. Mix flaxseed with water and place in fridge while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
  3. Saute onion for 2-3 minutes over medium-high heat. Then add garlic, bell pepper, and carrot and cook until onions are translucent.
  4. Transfer to a large bowl and mix in spices. Set aside
  5. Blend black beans in a food processor and mix into the bowl with sautéed veggies. Add corn, oats, oat flour, and flaxseed and mix until everything is well combined.

For the enchilada sauce

  1. Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the tomato sauce and all the spices and salt. 

  2. Grab a whisk and gently whisk in the chicken broth little by little. In a small bowl or ramekin, make a slurry with the arrowroot flour and water. Add this in and whisk until well combined.

  3. Lower the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes or until the sauce is reduced by a quarter. Dip in a spoon and see that it' think enough to cost the back of the spoon. Remove from heat and let it cool.
