How to Make Low Fat Ground Beef Wellingtons

  1. Heat 1 cup of beef stock in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, finely diced, and sauté for 5 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in 2 cloves garlic (minced), 8 ounces cremini mushrooms (finely diced), and 2 stalks celery (finely diced).
  4. Cook until the celery is tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and refrigerate for 20 minutes to cool.
  6. Season the mushroom mixture with 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  7. In a separate bowl, combine 1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean or higher), 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 large egg, lightly beaten, and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs.
  8. Gently shape the beef mixture into 8 equal patties.
  9. Roll out 2 sheets of puff pastry (14.1 ounces each) and cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.
  10. Place one beef patty in the center of each pastry square. Top with a spoonful of the chilled mushroom mixture.
  11. Fold the pastry over the filling to create an envelope shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal.
  12. Crimp the edges with a fork to ensure a tight seal. Don't worry about being too delicate with the pastry; just work quickly to avoid melting it with your hands.
  13. Lightly spray each wellington with cooking oil.
  14. Place the wellingtons on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  15. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 35-40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the beef is cooked through.
  16. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  17. Serve immediately with arugula, crumbled feta cheese, and sliced tomatoes for a delicious and healthy meal!
