Fantasy Veggie Dinner Guest - LISA LOPEZ

'Left Eye' Lisa was a member of TLC. She received four Grammy Awards and was instrumental in the writing of most of their songs. But, in spite of the success and recognition, she was not a happy girl, leading to her burning down her boyfriend's house. In 2002, in an attempt to 'get back on track', she was filming herself for a documentary as she drove to a charity event in Honduras. She swerved off the road to avoid a crash with a truck, rolled the car, landed in a ditch and died instantly. 

To commemorate her status as a well-known vegetarian, Zelda would like to invite her round to have a slap-up meal.

CHEESE-STUFFED QUORN PASTRIES

Serves 2 but can easily be multiplied

2 Quorn fillets, defrosted if frozen
½ onion, peeled and chopped finely
1 tsp olive oil
4tbsp cream cheese
black pepper
1/3 sheet ready-made puff pastry
splash of milk

Heat oil in a pan and fry the onion until golden.
Mix with the cream cheese and season with lots of black pepper.

Cut a long rectangle from the puff pastry (either use the rest to multiply this recipe or use for other meals).
Place one of the fillets on half of the pastry.

Spread the cheese mixture over the fillet and the pastry.

Place the other fillet on top.
Fold over the rest of the pastry and crimp the edges.

Cut into the top to make it look pretty. Brush with milk.

For a lovely main meal, serve with Parmesan-style Parsnips and Lemon Potatoes.
