Ingredients

  • 1 large onion
  • 1 link pork sausage
  • 1/2 tsp parsley
  • 3/4 cup lowfat cottage cheese
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup fluid heavy cream
  • 1 crust, single 9" pie shell
  • 5 oz frozen spinach

Directions

  • Pre-bake the pie shell per instructions (or until looks like it's sweating).
  • De-case sausage link and cut onion into thin rings, then sauté the sausage and onions and drain fat.
  • Arrange the sausage and onions over the bottom of the pie shell.
  • Squeeze liquid from spinach, then in a bowl whisk all remaining ingredients.
  • Top sausage and onions with cheese mixture.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350° F (175° C) for 35-40 minutes or until done.
  • Let sit 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  • Note: you could easily use fat free mozzarella and/or turkey sausage instead to cut down on fat content. Yummy with a salad and steamed carrots.
