Ingredients
  • Butter flavored cooking spray
  • 1 lb. sweet Italian turkey sausage links, removed from casings
  • 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 4 cups baby spinach
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 6 sheets phyllo dough, defrosted according to pkg. directions
  • 1/4 cup plain dry breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup shredded Gruyere cheese

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350*. Coat a 9" deep-dish glass pie pan with cooking spray.
  2. 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.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, egg whites, milk, and pepper.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.

Sounds very tasty!


Loved that 'book' real men don't eat quiche - which I think was my very first book on 'men' lol, but putting that aside, this is one very interesting take on the quiche - I love the idea of using phyllo dough sheets in creating this - and it must look extra pretty as well! Well done and thanks for sharing!
