Salsa Soyloaves

Spicy meatloaf!  I made this for a potluck at work and even the meateaters liked them.  I even fooled a couple of people because I didn't tell them they were vegetarian until after they were finished ;-)

These mini loaves have a spicy kick to them - probably more than the normal recipe because I used a taco blend cheese instead of the Mexican four cheese.  The loaves held together OK - I will probably use more crackers next time.  Also, we didn't have Saltines on hand, so I used some Water Crackers we had been given at a party.  Still, they held together better than I expected.  They were very soft and the taste was definitely like a spicy, cheesy, meatloaf.  Very good!

In addition to changing the cheese type, I used the Morningstar Burger Crumbles and Pace Medium Salsa (not hot only because it was for a potluck).  I also used muffin liners because I was scared that the loaves would stick to the muffin tin.  They did stick to the paper, but at least that was easier to work with!  Next time, I'll spray the liners with Pam.

Definitely something that I will make again - but I'll probably cut back on the cheese next time.  1.5 cups is a lot and the salsa gives it so much flavor as it is!
