Nut Roast

This is a very easy nut roast that you can make in a short amount of time.

This recipe was a real puzzle to figure out. I grabbed ideas from a bunch of different nut roasts and played around until I got it just right. The trick? Pack it super tight in the loaf tin. That way, it holds together, and you can slice it up without it turning into a crumbly mess. Trust me, it's worth the effort!
