This is a perfect luncheon dish! You will need a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate, I used fresh sliced mushrooms in place of canned that I sauteed firstly when I made this, and I also added in a small chopped red bell pepper but that is optional. If you use more than 1 cup sauteed fresh mushrooms I suggest to use a 10-inch pie plate instead of 9-inch and roll the puff pastry out a little larger. Ingredients:
1 puff pastry sheet (use half of a 17-ounce package) |
4 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup half-and-half |
3 eggs |
1 cup canned sliced mushrooms, very well drained |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach, thawed and well drained |
1 1/4 cups cheddar cheese, shredded |
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
2 green onions, chopped (can use more) |
seasoning salt, and |
pepper |
1/2 cup parmesan cheese (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 400 degrees. 2. Prepare a 9-inch glass pie plate. 3. Roll out the puff pastry sheet to an 11-inch square, then transfer to prepared pie plate; trim edges. 4. In a bowl beat the cream cheese until smooth. 5. Add in the half and half and eggs; beat until combined. 6. Squeeze out any moisture in the thawed spinach well using you hands before adding inches. 7. Add in all remaining ingredients; mix with a wooden spoon to combine. 8. Pour into puff pastry crust. 9. Sprinkle with about 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or to taste). 10. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the filling is set. 11. Cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. |
