-In a pan Crumble the Meatless Sausage of your choice and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes to release moisture.

- Return the same pan back to the stove over medium-high heat and add a teaspoon of oil.

Assemble the Wellington:


-Spread Crumbled sausage on the bottom layer.

Make sure to leave about a 2-inch border at both ends of the pastry.

-Next, arrange the roasted squash and bread mixture by using your hands to pack the mixture into a loaf, making sure it doesn’t go over the edges of the Sausage.

-Gently roll the second piece of pastry over the top, creating a blanket over all of the vegetable layers.

- Press the pastry gently around the filling to create a log shape.

-Trim the pastry so that there is about a 1-inch border around the log.Fold the bottom layer of the pastry over the top layer and seal the dough together with a decorative crimp.

-Cut decorative shapes from the dough scraps and arrange over the log. Using a paring knife, cut a few vents into your wellington to allow steam to escape. You can hide the vents along the edges.

-Spray or Brush the top and sides of the Wellington with Olive Oil

-Bake for 30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.
