Ingredients

cooking spray
one 15-ounce can no-salt-added black beans, drained and rinsed
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 carrot, minced
2 stalks celery, minced
1 cup mushrooms, chopped coarsely
1 cup quinoa, cooked
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
3 tablespoon brown rice flour or whole-wheat flour
2 tablespoon ketchup
2 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce or tamari

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a standard bread pan or use a nonstick pan and set aside. Mash the black beans in a large bowl and combine all of the ingredients until evenly combined. Transfer to the pan, and pat down firmly and tightly using a spatula. Bake until firm and browned on the outside, for 45-60 minutes. Allow the loaf to cool and firm up before serving, about 15-20 minutes.
