In a large bowl, place the protein starter, sautéed veggie mixture, bread crumbs, milk, flax egg, parsley, salt and pepper. Using your hands or a large spoon, stir until fully combined.
Press the mixture into your prepared loaf pan and top with the remaining 1/4 cup of ketchup. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the inside reaches a temperature of 155 degrees F.
