There is a wonderful Easy Beef Wellington recipe over at cooks.com - they call it “Individual Beef Wellington Steaks”. If you are carnivorous and like steak slathered in mushrooms and don’t mind the taste of pate you’ll probably love it.
Basically, you take trimmed tenderloin steaks (I used sirloin and it worked just fine), cook them in the oven for ten minutes, then chill them (I waited until they were a little cool then put them in the refridgerator). Onto a sheet of puff pastry, put a couple of tablespoons of cooked mushrooms (being lazy I used tinned mushrooms in butter sauce, it worked fine). Put the steak onto the mushrooms, slather pate over the steak, wrap the puff pastry around the whole lot, seal with butter, bake at 200 celsius until the pastry is brown and puffy, eat. Mmmm 
I think I shall have to try this one. It’s easy and fast and that’s what I love best about cooking.
I am definitely not the type to spend hours and delicate detail putting something together! So this is perfect for me.
Thank you for your comment
The beauty of faux cuisine is that it is possible to get 80-90% of the effect in less than half the time - we are all busy these days.
When I became single again after a long period of marriage a friend told me that one of the best things a man could do was to learn how to cook a few things really well - that there were some things that should be able to be cooked from scratch with care and attention to detail without recourse to a recipe. This has proved to be good advice and I commend it to everyone, single or otherwise.
