# Cheese and Nut Loaf

## Ingredients

* 1 1/2 c cooked brown rice
* 200 g walnuts
* 75 g cashews
* 1 medium yellow onion finely diced
* 2 tbsp butter
* salt
* 2 cloves garlic minced
* 60 g shiitake mushrooms chopped
* 60 g baby bella mushrooms chopped
* 2 tbsp parsley chopped
* 1/2 tsp dried thyme
* 1 tsp dried marjoram
* 1/2 tsp dried sage
* 4 eggs beaten
* 1 c cottage cheese
* 12 oz cheese (a variety such as Gruyere, cheddar, muenster, Fontina, jack) grated
* Pepper

## Procedure

Roast the nuts in the oven for 5-7 minutes, then chop them finely.

Cook the onion in the butter over moderate heat until it is translucent, then
season with salt and add the garlic, chopped mushrooms, and herbs. Cook until
the liquid released by the mushrooms has been reduced.

In a large bowl, combine the mixture with the rice, nuts, eggs, cottage cheese,
and grated cheese. Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper and
additional salt, if needed.

Lightly butter a loaf pan, then line it with buttered waxed paper or parchment
paper. Fill the pan and bake the loaf at 375F until the top is golden and
rounded, about 1 to 1 1/4 hours. The loaf should be firm when you give the pan a
gentle shake. Let rest for 10 minutes before turning out.
