No problem,
Yes, you can. It is particularly nice in a chilli-non-carne or a spaghetti bolognaise. Whatever you end up making with it I hope you enjoy it!!!
It isn't a dumb question honey ! This is what the Vegetarian and Vegan section is for , asking about recipes , ingredients and issues surrounding Vegetarianism and Veganism. I haven't used aubergines (eggplants) before in cookery!!

Yes. Fry it for a minute or two with some chopped onions in olive oil and then add some vegetable stock to stop it from drying out. Keep topping up the veg stock as the mince dries out and add your sauce as soon as possible.

Yes, no problem.
I don't know if the mince does this or not, but the Quorn pieces tend to explode if you reheat them in a microwave. Just something to be aware of.

I'm with the rest of the answers. Yes. Its not meat.
Can't say i use it too often, but is it not found in the freezer cabinets in shops?
If so then definitly.
What are you looking to cook?
Why not try some pulses instead?

Yes you can, and I would also suggest cooking it for a while as on its own, it's pretty tasteless but if you cook it with onions, garlic etc, it will take on more of a flavour. I usually make pasta sauces, bolognaise, veg cottage pie with it.

Yeah you can, and as it goes you are supposed to. But I would suggest that you just read the back of the packet, cuz that would tell you all you need to know. It's pretty tasty too.

Best to put it in the microwave for 2 minutes on full to thaw it

If you saute it then yes...just put in the pan and saute straight from the freezer. If you want to use in a casserole then I would saute it first and then assemble your casserole.

Yes, that should be fine. Although similar in texture it does not have the same risks associated with meat.
