Instead of veggie burgers, I used textured vegetable protein (TVP) reconstituted with a veggie boullion (this is less expensive). And I found a vegan mozzarella cheese that I like, so I cut it into chunks instead of shredding it. It was so good! I hoarded it like a miser, denying my earlier desire to share it with my omnivore roommate. But I made a second loaf later in the week for a small dinner party and actually shared that one. (Well! It would've been rude to have people over for dinner and not feed them!) The omnivores liked it, too. The rest of the menu included mashed potatoes and a rich, chocolate cake. Just like mom used to make on Sundays!... only without eggs, milk, cheese, or meat.
