  • Stir in 8 ounces of chopped mushrooms and sauté for 7-10 minutes until caramelized. Add 4 cups of fresh spinach until wilted.
  • Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl. Stir in 1 cup of cooked lentils, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle on a floured surface.
  • Spoon the cooled filling mixture into the center of the pastry, leaving space on each side to fold over. Seal edges with a fork.
  • Place the assembled Wellington seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with plant-based egg wash and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  • Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
