Ingredients

  • 8 ounces baby portobella mushrooms, sliced

  • 8 ounces mozzarella, shredded
  • 4 ounces sharp white cheddar, shredded
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 sheet of puff pastry
  • 2 spring onions, thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees
  • Brown Italian sausage in a medium skillet and once it is nicely browned, transfer it into a bowl and set aside
  • In the same skillet, cook the diced onions over medium heat, scraping the browned bits from the Italian sausage from the bottom of the skillet
  • Once the onions are softened, add the mushrooms and continue to cook until the mushrooms are softened as well
  • Transfer the onions and mushrooms to a bowl and set aside
  • Add spinach to the skillet over medium heat for two minutes or until it has wilted slightly. Transfer into a bowl and set aside
  • Lightly flour a large cutting board and roll out the puff pastry slightly larger than it was in the packaging
  • Run a knife to score a line about 3/4 of an inch inside the boarder of the puff pastry
  • Using a fork, gently prick holes all over the puff pastry to the inside the boarder
  • Make an egg wash by whisking one egg and one teaspoon of water together in a small bowl and brush this egg wash around the boarder of your puff pastry
  • Top the puff pastry with shredded cheese, cooked Italian sausage, onions, mushrooms, wilted spinach and sun dried tomatoes
  • Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes
  • Remove from the oven and crack 4 large eggs onto the tart
  • Return the tart to the oven and bake until the eggs are set to your preference
  • Garnish with additional shredded cheese and finely diced spring onions
