Who says that real men don't eat quiche? I betcha that once they have tried this one, it will be a favorite amongst (real) men.
Ingredients
- butter flavored cooking spray shopping list
- 1 lb. sweet Italian turkey sausage links, removed from casings shopping list
- 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced shopping list
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms shopping list
- 4 cups baby spinach shopping list
- 4 eggs shopping list
- 2 egg whites shopping list
- 1/2 cup milk shopping list
- 1/4 tsp. pepper shopping list
- 6 sheets phyllo dough, defrosted according to pkg. directions shopping list
- 1/4 cup plain dry breadcrumbs shopping list
- 1/4 cup shredded gruyere cheese shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350*. Coat a 9" deep-dish glass pie pan with cooking spray.
- Cook sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl lined with paper towels. Coat the pan with cooking spray, add onion and mushrooms and cook, stirring until beginning to brown, 4-5 minutes. Add spinach and stir until just wilted, about 1 minute. Transfer the vegetables to the bowl with the sausage; set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, egg whites, milk, and pepper.
- Unroll phyllo onto a clean, dry work surface. Cover with a sheet of wax paper and then a damp kitchen towel. Place one sheet of plyllo dough into the prepared pie pan, spray with cooking spray and sprinkle lightly with breadcrumbs. Repeat with the remaining phyllo, spraying and sprinkling between each layer, turning each sheet at a 45* angle to cover the entire pan. Trim the phyllo edge with kitchen shears to be level with the rim of the pan. Spread the sausage mixture in an even layer on top of the phyllo; pour in the egg mixture and top with cheese.
- Bake the quiche until the top is browned and the phyllo is crispy, 40-45 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into wedges.
