Step 1

Preheat oven to 190°C/fan 170°C/gas mark 5.

Step 2

Brush the outside of the pepper with half of the oil and place on a baking tray (cut side down). Roast for 10-15 minutes.

Step 3

Whilst the pepper is roasting, add remaining oil to a frying pan and stir fry the cauliflower for 2 minutes until golden.

Step 4

Add tofu to the pan and stir fry for a further 1 minute.

Step 5

Add K.Quik® and water to the pan and stir in the pesto. Simmer for 5 minutes until starting to reduce.

Step 6

Check the pepper has softened slightly, remove from oven and fill with cauliflower and tofu mixture.

Step 7

Top with grated cheese and return to oven for a further 10 minutes until cheese has melted and started to brown.

Step 8

Allow to cool for a moment and serve.

Top Tip

For a different flavour try red pesto, however remember to allow for any additional carbohydrate this may provide.

For a softer pepper roast on both sides.
