    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 tsp. olive oil
    3 cups chopped onion
    1 tsp. sugar
    1/2 tsp. salt
    2 cups frozen Southern-style hash brown potatoes, thawed
    1 (11-oz.) can refrigerated soft breadstick dough
    Cooking spray
    1 (10-oz.) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained, and squeezed dry
    1 cup fat-free milk
    3 large egg whites
    2 large eggs
    1-1/4 cups (5-oz.) crumbled feta cheese

    Recipe



    To decrease fat, use 2 egg yolks and 5 egg whites. Some egg yolks are necessary to produce a creamy filling. You can refrigerate the leftover yolks for up to 3 days in an airtight container (add a tablespoon of water so the yolks don't develop a film).

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    2. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion, sugar, and salt; cook for 30 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Stir in potatoes and cook for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from heat.

    3. Unroll dough, separating into strips. Working on a flat surface, coil one strip of dough around itself in a spiral pattern. Add second strip of dough to the end of the first strip, pinching ends together to seal; continue coiling the dough. Repeat procedure with the remaining dough strips. Cover and let dough rest for 10 minutes. Roll dough into a 12" circle, and fit into a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate coated with cooking spray.

    4. Spread potato mixture in bottom of prepared crust, and top with spinach. Combine milk, egg whites, eggs, and cheese; pour the milk mixture over the spinach. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until set, shielding crust with foil after 50 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
