Although we eat Quorn quite often we’ve never tried the Steak Strips until now. They’re really convenient and would make a nice alternative to beef strips or chicken in a stir-fry. My husband loves pies so I thought I would try him out with a meat-free twist on the classic beef and onion pie to see what he thought. What I liked most about using the Quorn as an alternative to beef is the cooking time, as it takes just a fraction of the time that it would take to cook beef. And the husband? Well, he loved it!
