Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 large red onions -- cut into wedges

2 orange peppers -- halves, seeded and thickly sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

4 quorn fillets

500 grams jar Dolmio extra mushroom sauce for bolognese

To serve:

crusty bread

green salad

 

Preheat the oven to 200C/Gas 7. Toss the red onion, peppers and olive oil

together and tip into a large baking dish. Roast for 15 minutes until

softened and golden brown.

 

Lower the oven to 200C/Gas 6. Nestle the quorn in with the roasted

vegetables and pour over the sauce. Cover with foil and bake for 15

minutes.

 

Remove the foil and cook for a further 5 minutes until the vegetables are

Per Serving (excluding unknown items): 60 Calories; 4g Fat (50.2% calories

from fat); 1g Protein; 7g Carbohydrate; 1g Dietary Fiber; 0mg Cholesterol;

2mg Sodium. Exchanges: 1 Vegetable; 1/2 Fat.

 

NOTES : The original recipe called for ch*cken breasts, but obviously I have

substituted with quorn. Also, I only had a 300g jar of Dolmio mushroom

sauce, so I threw in a 400g can of cherry tomatoes. I also added some

sliced mushrooms, and a can of new potatoes, sliced, to make it a " meal in a

pot " so I didn't have to do an accompaniment.

 

I also roasted the vegetables for half an hour, not 15 minutes, but I am

catering for an 83 year old who refuses to get new teeth, so chewy veg are

not an option!!!

Carolyn, this sounds great! Is Dolmio a brand name? What is the mushroom

sauce like and where do you get it?

 

So funny about your 83-year-old who won't get new teeth! (My 87-year-old

grandmother complains that her molars are worn smooth and makes eating

popcorn impossible -- fortunately, she can still eat cookies!)

Hi Audrey - I'm not Carolyn but I can confirm that Dolmio is a brand name of

Italian ragu-type sauces.

 

I can also sympathise with the whole teeth thing - my 86 year old Dad won't

wear any teeth at all, so all veg are cooked to within an inch of their

ability to remain recognisable.
