Name: Lentil-Carrot Loaf
Ingredients: 3 c Carrots; cut into 1/3-inch slices; 1 1/2 c Lentils; cooked, drained; 1/2 c Onions; finely chopped; 1/2 ts Sage; 1 ts Curry powder; 2 tb Shoyu or tamari; 1 c Rolled oats; 1/2 c Walnuts or pecans; chopped; 2 tb Parsley; finely chopped

An “impersonal God” – well and good. A subjective God of beauty, truth and goodness, inside our own head – better still. A formless life-force surging through us, a vast power which we can tap – best of all. But God Himself, alive, pulling at the other end of the cord, perhaps, approaching an infinite speed, the hunter, king, husband – that is quite another matter. There comes a moment when the children who have been playing at burglars hush suddenly: Was that a real footstep in the hall? There comes a moment when people who have been dabbling in religion (“Man’s search for God!”) suddenly draw back. Supposing we really found Him? We never meant it to come to that! Worse still, supposing He had found us?

reserve the water to make a sauce to serve with the loaf.
Mix together the cooked carrots and lentils. Mash them coarsely with a
potato masher. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.
Pack the mixture into a well-oiled loaf pan. Decorate the top of the loaf
with nut halves, if desired.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes, or until firm and golden brown.
After baking, let the loaf stand for about 5 minutes, and then unmold it

unmolded loaf with sliced ripe tomatoes, or any other colorful vegetable.
