Ingredients

• 8 low-fat phyllo dough sheets
• 0 cooking spray
• 6 slices low-fat turkey bacon
• 4 egg whites
• 2 whole eggs
• 1 cup low-fat milk
• 1 cup low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 0.5 onion
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly spray a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.

Step 3

Layer the phyllo dough sheets in the pie dish, lightly spraying with cooking spray between each layer. Crimp the edges to form a crust.

Step 4

Bake the phyllo crust in the oven for about 5 minutes, just until starting to crisp. Remove and set aside.

Step 5

In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the turkey bacon until crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess fat. Once cool, chop into small pieces.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add in the spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.

Step 7

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, whole eggs, and low-fat milk until well combined.

Step 8

Stir in the turkey bacon, spinach, onion, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper into the egg mixture.

Step 9

Pour the entire mixture into the prepared phyllo crust.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your low fat bacon quiche!
