My notes: Omit wheat germ for gluten-free diet. Substitute bran if wheat germ is not available used to add fiber. Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with non-stick vegetable spray. Combine ingredients and pack into loaf pan. Bake 40 - 45 minutes or until brown on edges and firm to touch. Cut into slices. Serve hot or at room temperature with a salad. OR Microwave in glass loaf pan covered with wax paper for 8 minutes on high power. Rotate once. OR if mixture holds together well enough shape into patties and brown in a non-stick frying pan. 1/6 recipe - 247 calories 1 starch 1 med-fat meat 1 vegetable 1/2 fat 13 grams protein 13 grams fat 20 grams carbohydrate 4 grams fiber 154 mg sodium 269 mg potassium 157 mg cholesterol Adapted from Am.
