- 4 turkey bacon strips, diced
- 1/4 cup onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup sweet red pepper, chopped
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 2 cups egg substitute
- 1/2 cup fat-free cottage cheese
- 1/4 cup reduced-fat Swiss cheese, shredded

- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon each salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper

- 6 tablespoons fat-free sour cream
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450°F.
On a lightly floured surface, unroll pastry. Transfer to a 9 inch pie plate. Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of plate. Flute edges.
Line unpricked pastry with a double thickness of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
Bake 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 350°.
In a small skillet, cook bacon, onion and red pepper until vegetables are tender. Drain. Stir in spinach. Spoon spinach mixture into pastry.
In a small bowl, combine the egg substitute, cottage cheese, Swiss cheese and seasonings. Pour over spinach mixture.
Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Top with sour cream.
