We know you love impressing your squad with super easy recipes. So, for the appetizer, we've cooked up something perfect for the lazy foodie in you: puff pastries. Yeah, you just buy the dough from the store and stuff it with a few bits and pieces you find at the bottom of your fridge, right? ;)

For this one, we've got caramelized onions and chive-flavored vegan ricotta as the filling, just to give you some inspiration :) Otherwise, that old tapenade you brought back from your summer vacation and a piece of sun-dried tomato that never seems to go moldy will do the trick too.

Steps

Peel and thinly slice the onions. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a pan and fry the onions until softened. When they are soft, add the maple syrup and continue cooking until they are well caramelized. Season to taste. Allow to cool.
Blend the tofu with the soy cream to obtain a crumbly texture similar to ricotta. Season to taste. Finely chop the chives and add them.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Cut circles in your puff pastry and top them with a bit of onion and a bit of ricotta. Fold over into half-moons and seal the edges. Brush with a little soy milk and bake for 20 minutes.
