Lentil Loaf Recipe
3/4 cup (157g) brown lentils
14.5 ounces (430ml) vegetable stock/broth
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 3/4 cups (150g) shredded carrots
1 cup (75g) chopped mushrooms
1 cup (100g) diced onion
1 tablespoon minced parsley
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1/2 cup (55g) cooked rice*
1 cup (100g) shredded mozzarella cheese
l large egg and 1 large egg white beaten together
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
6 ounces (170g) tomato paste
*I cooked my rice in the vegetable stock we made in this video
1. Tip the lentils and vegetable stock/broth into a small saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until the lentils are perfectly tender -- about 30 minutes.
2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan, and then line the pan with parchment. Lightly grease the parchment.
3. Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, mushrooms and onion and saute until the vegetables are tender -- about 10 minutes. Off heat, stir in the parsley.
4. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl and let cool for 10 minutes. Then stir in the Italian seasoning, rice, cheese, egg mixture, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and lentils.
5. Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Spread the tomato paste over the top of the loaf. Bake in the preheated oven until set -- 45-50 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before unmolding and slicing.

Dearest Kevin, I'm a wallpaper girl!! I prefer wallpaper over paint, always! I love the pineapple paper with blue background - your favorite. It is so beautiful. Your home is so beautiful and clearly you have been blessed in knowing how to decorate. Thank you for spending time with us and showing us your projects. Sending prayers and love! 🙏💖

I’ve only been subscribed to you for a few days, so I don’t know you at all. Deciding on your wallpaper, I think you would be best to counsel w/ your wife or husband….. because they will be sharing the room w/ you. Good luck in your Dec it dion.
Oh my goodness, the second pineapple pattern is so lovely. I can't wait to see what you finally do with that room. A day with Kevin is always so enjoyable.

He's the kind of person that if the ceiling caved in and he was buried under it, he woluld calmly get up, calmly dust himself off and calmly say, "Okey dokey, now let's get organized." Kevin, you are rare. There was only one person like you on this planet, but he's six feet under now because he's dead. Keep on keeping on!!!
Hi Kevin! Your channel is so relaxing. Thank you for that. Continued success to you!
Kevin, you have chosen wisely. The paper that’s your favorite is beautiful and will stand the rest of time as far as versatility. It will compliment any change in decor you may want in the future. I started using the Instapot for soups also. The favor is identical to the long simmering soup but I do miss the aroma of a soup simmering in the stove. Thank you as always.
I love the third sample - the diamonds and bees on the green background. In the bedroom, it is nice to have a peaceful pattern. Let us see your other samples when they arrive. To visit your home is always such a hearwarming experience. Thank you Kevin for letting us in.❤🇨🇦
I vote for the pineapple paper. Homemade stock is so superior to canned. Great video . Thank you.
I love the rose pineapple wallpaper, oriented vertically!
I prefer. Bees and stars. Wallpaper. Relaxing in a bedroom not too busy. No pun intended. Mr busy bee. Lol
Hallo Kevin i absolutely agree with you , the pineapple wallpaper is perfect for your room. Thank you so much for the lovely veggie recipe, it looks delicious x
Salute and bonapetite Kevin...it looks like you have a big and beautiful domaine to keep you occupied this planting season.Enjoy your Easter weekend and thank you for your time in doing these videos for us.❤😊
Pineapple wallpaper is my vote. Then you could use the beautiful blue in the design for accent pieces or your bedding. The lunch outside seems so relaxing and a wonderful change of scenery after winter.
For a bedroom wallpaper I would go with something very calming and neutral and not too dark. I might pick the blue and pink and red for a dining room.

i love the blue pineapple❤
What a great dish for my meatless Monday menu
Hi Kevin, I absolutely love your videos. You gave such a kind and calming way about you. The bird in your music room wallpaper, I believe, is called a Woo bird. I have an antique chinoiserie mirror with a bird similar to that on it, and that's what the description calls it.
I love dragonfly wallpaper. Like the Grimshaw paintings of the late 1800's. I looked high and low for dragon fly wallpaper for my bathroom 5 years ago. And only a British company had one. Today, there is a better selection for dragon fly wallpaper. I found one in green you might like for your bedroom, and you could keep all the same color schemes you have like the bedspread, etc: Art Nouveau Dragonflies | Med Cool Green Wallpaper bysouthwind But they have different colors.
🎉🎉🎉”Yaaay!! “, is what I say when I get a notification that you posted a new video, Kevin! I’m a new sub from Erie, Pa, and have been binge-watching you! Love all your content and also appreciate the relaxing atmosphere you provide and your meatless recipes. ❤I’m also an Anglophile, and love London, as well! By the way, I love the “Bee” wallpaper 🐝
I love wallpaper! Your favorite is my favorite. Can't wait to see the finished bedroom!
My favorite is the “ornament and stripe”. It’s simple and unassuming yet a timeless classic. The pineapple pattern is nice, but I just don’t feel the pinkish rose color of the pineapple, especially for a male bedroom.
9:29 The Pinapple one is my favorite too
Pineapple wallpaper is my vote…..I am picturing different bedding to match.
The Pineapple paper goes perfectly with the picture over the bed.
Last pineapple, just beautiful
The first pineapple sample is warm and sexy. That’s my vote. The others could lend a cool feeling and who wants that in a bedroom 😊.
A beautiful house from that era really needs wallpaper!
Thanks for another wonderful video. The bedroom wallpapers all look beautiful, especially the large sample pineapple one. All of your existing wallpapered rooms are lovely too. They really look stylish and compliment the style and period of your home. Best Wishes from Adelaide, South Australia.
What a pleasure it is to spend time “with” you Kevin! Your videos are always so relaxing and enjoyable, and motivate me to do those projects, and try the new recipes. Keep them coming! And, good luck in your wallpaper quest!💖
Thank you for all the effort you put into your videos. They’re wonderful, and I can’t wait to try your recipes!
Kevin. The second sample is the one. All you'd have to change is the window treatment. The bedding is fine. ☺
Can’t wait for your videos! Always a treat.
7:12 Love the bird wallpaper. My house has many different wallpapers that I choose too
I think you should do the celery colored paper from the dining room in your bedroom . It’s soothing and restful not too busy. All the papers you showed are vibrant and busy.
The pineapple wallpaper would be pretty in a dining room. A bedroom is soothing with a light background and a gentle, calm, delicate pattern. But that room, with those bright windows, would come alive with a fresh coat of pistachio green paint and artic white trim and finished off with several gold framed floral paintings. But then, the bed would need to be white too which might be a bridge too far in a remodel. Lovely room, so much could be done with it but different drapes could transform it as it is now!
That stock looks good, Kevin! I always save the tops and tails from my onions, carrots, celery, squash and such, in a bag in the freezer, and use this to make vegetable stock. I'm on a very tight budget, and try not to waste anything! I'm looking forward to seeing more wallpaper samples, and can't wait to see your completed bedroom makeover! That lentil loaf looks wonderful, too! I'm going to have to try it!
Decades ago, I considered wall paper for the master bedroom and then I decided against it. Moving paintings and the mirrors hanging on the wall above the dresser would produce holes and devalue the wall paper. Wall paper is a great option for some people. I love an ecru paint color on the walls and the ceiling, since it is such a soothing relaxing color. Ecru is a neutral color that is very easy for decorating a home. I tried white paint on the walls decades ago it was too stark for my taste. I have a pressure cooker and I use it for cooking meats only, since this method infuses the seasonings into the meat and cooking is so much faster. I enjoyed your video. Have a great day!
Trying to find the things you love for the garden for spring and the rest of the summer is what many people can relate to. It’s a challenge every year and so lovely when you find what you are looking for (or more when you’re lucky)…
You’re home is beautiful and traditional style and relaxing to look at and love domestic arts and love your smile
Hi Kevin, I used to do the mason jar thing too but now - after several days in the crock pot I transfer the broth to a stock pot and cook it down A LOT. After it cools I put it in small square ice cube trays made of silcone and freeze these. I store all the cubes in a gallon baggie and take out what I need. It's pretty concentrated so I use one cube and anywhere from 2 cups to 6 cups of water, depending on what I am using it for. I always cook rice in broth for the added benefits as opposed to water.

Great idea!
A Chinese style with bamboo in pale green or blue aré the best wallpaper for a classic look for a bedroom and a peaceful sleep
Both pineapple papers are beautiful, I prefer the lighter warmer background but I think the blue version is nice and relaxing color for a bedroom 😊
My mother-in-law always jarred her soups in 1/2 gallon blue jars and froze them. She also filled blue jars with berries for the freezer. Back in her day she had no freezer containers to purchase at the shops. But she had blue glass jars. Now she canned tons and tons of things over her lifetime also.
Delicious meal as always, Kevin. Waiting to see which wall paper you choose. I admire your elegant tastes and your beautiful home! 😊❤
Art Nouveau Dragonflies | Med Cool Green Wallpaper bysouthwind for your bedroom
My fave is the blue background the pineapple! Gorgeous! Loved seeing flowers again! We still have so much snow here in Minnesota! 💕
Hi Kevin: My husband and I really like the one you like so far because the rich blue background looks very elegant against that pattern. Since you were leaning toward a whole room makeover we feel this would give you that new look you may want. The others are still carrying over too much green if the change is really what you and Mr Fox want. Hope this is helpful. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Ornament and stripe, the gray and green wallpaper, pretty but not too busy 🪺🐦 but you pick what you like
The sample I prefer is the ornament and stripe one. I really enjoy watching your videos!
Those hanging baskets complimented the trim on your house perfectly. What a fun, diverse video. Thank you Kevin. ❤️Jodie 🇦🇺
I too like the wallpaper you chose. I too am glad that New York finally has some warm weather, however, yesterday (April 7) it was too cold once again. It is so interesting how so many people have similar tastes in decor. Thank you for sharing your recipes, home ideas, and gardening suggestions. I am looking forward to May weather, this is the best Spring weather in New York. Enjoy your weekend.
i love the blue pineapple paper-- i can't wait to see your room when it is finished!! your lentil loaf sounds fab!!
PS: The pineapple design...ROCKS!!!
Vegetable facial! That’s one of a kind! 😁👏👏
First pineapple hung horizontal. It’s happy, warm, bright and sexy. lol! You’ll look better against it as it flatters your skin tone better. How fun!
Great episode Kevin! I love the papers in all you rooms but my favorite is the music room! I love the birds of paradise on it! Wallpaper makes a room! Good luck choosing the bedroom paper. You have such real taste, I am sure it will be beautiful!
I like the second pineapple wallpaper sitting horizontally.
Oh, and I forgot to mention your wallpaper samples. I prefer the one that's your favourite too. My second choice would be the second sample you held up. Your bedroom will be very beautiful and inviting, once you are done. Making changes is exciting, isn't it!
Hi Kevin😊 I'm from West Virginia and I just love your cooking show! I'm disabled and I live alone with my dog Bruzer. I just come across your show a few weeks ago and I enjoy it so, so much! Your inspiration to me! I'm so sorry to hear about your cat, I'm also an animal lover. You seem so down to earth, your not like those other cooking shows, after watching you, your the best! I personally didn't like none of the wall paper samples, especially the pineapple! Sorry but that's my honest opinion. I love your show! Keep the videos coming! Love ya!❤
Bonne fin d après midi Kevin! À propos de votre papier peint pour votre chambre j’aime le gris et vert et aussi celui avec les ananas je suis sûre que vous aurez une magnifique chambre Merci pour la promenade à la pépinière j’aime aussi la couleur de vos pétunias Magnifique bouquet de roses dans votre cuisine mes fleurs préférées.Merci encore pour votre idée de dîner que je ferai demain pour Anna ma belle fille que j’adore qui est végétarienne Bonne soiree Marcelle
It’s probably too late for my comment about the wallpaper choice, but here goes: I think colors in a bedroom should be calming. I love the pineapple wallpaper, but I don’t find it to be restful. I was drawn to the bee wallpaper, but either that or the 1st one would be my preference for a calm oasis from daily life. No matter what you choose, it will be lovely!
The blue pineapple wallpaper is stunning. Your walls are screaming for it.
You have a beautiful home
I really love the first pineapple sample. But im sure which ever one you choose will be amazing. As your whole home is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Walls in you bedroom don't look terrible, as you said. Clear walls are good for attracting some nice and suitable paintings or prints framed in beautiful suitable frames.

ok, to my taste pineaple paters is the best
You have FOECEED me to keep my house cleaner..whie glove inspection! and to open my Scotch purse and buy some flowers!
I loved spending yesterday and today with you.
I save vegetables scraps in the freezer and when the bag is full, I make stock. It’s free!
The bird on the wallpaper is a peacock from India . Identified by google. Gorgeous papers fantastic taste….❤
no to the bees and stars , love the blue one , Brenda
I'd love to see some more papers. I think that a bedroom requires a peaceful look, similar to what you have in your foyer. It's so airy and lovely. The bolder papers work better in another room. Just my humble opinion.
I love that pineapple wallpaper… hung horizontally would be divine!
Rose Pineapple vertical Kevin! 😊
The second 🍍 was beautiful and would look great !
It is so relaxing and lovely to watch your videos. Your calming, friendly demeanor is a reason for coming back. Thank you for teaching us so much about the history of your lovely home.
# 1 …. Ornament & Stripe # 2……Pineapple NO “bees” I fondly remember the lemon cakelets you made. Love the variegated petunia you picked out.
Kevin, would you be kind enough to introduce your photographer to us, the videos are always so enjoyable it would be nice to meet the one who films them. Your videos are encouraging for me to clean house and display all the beautiful items I brought with me from the UK. I love all your beautiful flower arrangments. And, I wonder if you ever use a teacosy? I wondered if you belong to a Historical or Music Society, when you mentioned getting ready for a concert. When you mentioned your tea service from Sheffield, the city is also famous for its cutlery. I really enjoy relaxing and seeing you working on all your projects, always full of inspiration!
Always a special treat to spend time with you, Kevin. Thank you.
Kevin, you are such a Delight with a capital D! 🤗 Thank you. My favorite old wallpaper is the one in the Music Room, is exquisite! The pink pineapples it is! 🍍🍍🍍🍍We live in Europe and we have professional wallpapered even our kitchen. 😉
As always, I love how you use everything! 👍🏻 And you have washed everything, as you do (you hardly see chefs doing that on tv, that’s a health issue, I think). But especially since using the outer of the veggies it’s best to use organic (you don’t want to eat all the chemicals concentrated all together in a lovely dish😳, that’s one of the things why we peel them). I love you getting to know us to use organic. It’s the way to go forward 👍🏻🙂
Definitely the blue wallpaper!
Rose colored pineapple looks beautiful!
Everything you do is just lovely. I would enjoy some time in your beautiful music room!!
I love the paper in the music room! I agree you need wallpaper in the bedroom but the pineapple paper will wake up the dead. Perhaps a little more subdued to create interest, yet a peaceful atmosphere that we all need to calm down our minds as we prepare to sleep. Hope you will find just the right one. Love!
Decals of that floral painting would be nice.
I am also fond of wall paper. Your veggie stock looks like it will be wonderful.👍
Love the pineapple with the blue background. Beautiful.
Rose colored Pineapple hands down...rich and vibrant and looks easy to decide on window dressings and bed linens....
Hmm.. As I see you as a person who reflects elegance, a wallpaper with an ever so slight hint of gilded gold would be my suggestion.
❤️ the rose pineapple and blue 👍
The second pineapple looks beautiful.
The pineapple wallpaper with the Wedgwood blue background is my favorite. This was so much fun to see the different papers!
Love the pineapple with the blue back ground, perfect💞
Hi. Kevin. Thanks for the lovely video. I like the pattern on your table cloth outside. It would make a beautiful wallpaper for the bedroom. 😊
Your home is exquisite....beautiful and elegant.!
I love the stripe. It strikes me that the pineapple design would be great in a dining area.

I agreel Pineapple paper in a bedroom? I don't think so.
You are quite the cook! I'm enjoying all your recipes and other projects too.
All the wallpaper samples are beautiful but your favourite pineapple paper is my favourite also. Your home is lovely.
