| ¾ | cup | Millet |
| ¾ | cup | Brown rice |
| 4¼ | cup | Water |
| ½ | cup | Bread crumbs |
| ¼ | cup | Rolled oats |
| ¼ | cup | Cashews, finely ground [I used a combo of sunflower seeds and walnuts] |

Directions
(my comments are in [brackets]) [I also added Worcestershire sauce, a Tbsp I think, and Liquid Smoke, a couple shakes of the bottle, less than a Tbsp maybe a tsp, maybe a little more]
[In a skillet with a little vegetable oil, toast the millet until it starts to crackle and turn a little darker.] Pick over lentils, then combine in a saucepan with the millet, rice, and water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until cooked, about 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil [or spray] a 8-½ by 4-½-inch loaf pan.
Add the remaining loaf ingredients and mix well. Transfer mixture to loaf pan and bake for 1 hour, or until lightly brown and the top is dry to the touch.
Serves 6 to 8
[I was bad topped it with heated cream of celery soup mixed with a little cayenne pepper. Campbell's now has low fat versions of their Cream of Whatever soups, so that would work. The recipe that suggested this as a topping said to use cream of celery or cream of mushroom, but there are so many toppings that would taste good on this loaf.] Posted to Digest eat-lf.v097.n042 by "BrownleeS" <BrownleeS@...> on Feb 13, 97.
