Everyone who tried it loved it and said it was the best Wellington they had ever had.

For the filling, you will need, vegetable oil, onion, butternut squash, mushrooms, thyme, rosemary, garlic, spinach, hazelnuts, kosher salt, black pepper, garlic, vegan egg wash, and vegan puffy pastry. If you are using store-bought make sure that they are fresh as they taste better.
And for the vegan gravy, you will need, all-purpose flour, vegetable oil, shallots, red wine, vegetable stock, raw sugar, tamari, kosher salt, and black pepper.
And to make this appetizing recipe,
To make the filling heat the vegetable oil then sautee the onions, and set aside and chop the leafy greens. Second, you will need to bake the butternut squash and mushroom for 20 minutes on a separate baking sheet and sprinkle them with leafy greens, seasoned with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper. Third, toast the hazelnuts for 5 minutes, and don’t over-toast. Fourth, saute the mushroom caps for 5 minutes. And lastly, sautee the garlic with spinach and season with kosher salt, and cook for 5 minutes.
Arrange the filling, in a medium bowl, and mix all the baked, chopped, and cooked filling as always season with kosher salt and black pepper. Arrange them into vegan puff pastry just like the picture and brush with vegan egg wash and bake for 25 minutes at 400˚F.
To prepare the vegan gravy, caramelize the shallots with heated oil for 10 minutes then stir to combine the all-purpose flour and cook again for 5 minutes. Gently add the vegetable broth and red wine and continue to cook for 3 minutes, then add the raw sugar, and tamari and season with kosher salt and pepper, adjust to taste if needed.
