Ingredients

  • 250g Quorn Meat Free Mince
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 red onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 tbsp red pesto
  • 500ml tomato passata
  • 150ml vegetable stock
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 slices of bread, stale if possible, with crusts removed
  • 1 x 125g ball of vegetarian Mozzarella, lower fat, sliced finely

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas Mark 6
  2. Heat the oil in large pan and gently fry the onions until softened. Add the garlic and cook for a further 2 minutes then stir in the pesto, passata, stock and oregano. Bring to the boil and add the Quorn Meat Free Mince. Remove from the heat
  3. Slice the mozzarella ball and make 4 sandwiches using the bread and mozzarella
  4. In a large oven proof container, pour a light layer of the Quorn Mince mix in then place the bread and cheese on top of this. Pour the remaining Quorn Mince mix on top ensuring the bread is submerged in the sauce then scatter the Parmesan cheese over

Serve with wilted spinach and nutmeg or a green salad

Add a handful of chopped back olives to the Quorn Mince mix for an extra flavour.
