Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 425F. 2. In a medium bowel, whisk the milk, cottage cheese, Parmesan, eggs, egg whites, salt, and pepper. 3. Place the pie plate on a baking pan; spread the spinach over the pie crust, then pour filling over the spinach. Bake 15 minutes; reduce the oven temperature to 350F and bake until the filling is set, 20 minutes longer. Let cool about 10 minutes before serving.

Basic Pie Crust ( Required ) : 1 Cup(s) flour 2 Teaspoon(s) sugar 1/8 Teaspoon(s) salt 2 Tablespoon(s) shortening 2 Tablespoon(s) butter 1 Teaspoon(s) Cider Vinegar 3 Tablespoon(s) water

Directions: 1) In a large bowl, combine the flour, 2 teaspoons of sugar, and salt. With a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter and shortening into the flour until the mixture resembles course crumbs. Stir in the vinegar and the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough begins to form. Press the dough together and shape into a disk. 2) On a floured surface, roll out the dough to a 12-13 inch circle; fit into a 9-inch pie pan, pressing to fit and crimping the edges to form a rim.
