Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• First, preheat the oven to 375 F and lightly grease a loaf pan.
• Sauté the garlic, onion, and bell peppers in olive oil for a few minutes, until onions are very soft.
• In a large bowl, combine the onions and peppers with the ground beef substitute, oatmeal, bread crumbs, 3 tablespoons of ketchup, garlic salt, and pepper. Mix well, using your hands if needed.
• Press into a lightly greased loaf pan.
• Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven when done.
• Combine ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard, and optional nutmeg, whisking together until smooth.
• Spread or drizzle this topping over the top of the loaf.
• Cook, uncovered, for another 15 minutes, or until done.
• Let your vegetarian meatloaf cool a fair amount before slicing into it to serve. Keep your loaf uncovered as it cools in order to allow a bit of extra moisture to release. This will help with allowing the loaf to firm up a bit as it cools.
• After it has cooled, slice it up and enjoy!
