Meatcake -- a vegan, gluten free, grain free, delicious piece of goodness

We're off to my in-laws for Easter Dinner. Which means ham. Which means no thanks. Soooo, we shall bring meatcake. It gets its protein from such goodies as pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and coconut, and the flavour is all savoury deliciousness. Calling it meatcake is just a running joke in our family. Sorry about that.

Just an fyi, the meatcake was enjoyed by all.
