Press them firmly into the dish, up the sides and flat across the bottom, as thin and even as you can.Bake the crust 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges are browned and the bottom looks dry. Turn the oven down to 350 °F.While it bakes, warm the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the onion and mushrooms 6 to 8 minutes, until the mushrooms have given up their water and it has cooked off. Add the spinach and stir 1 to 2 minutes, until it wilts. Let it cool a few minutes.Scatter the vegetables and cheese over the crust.Whisk the eggs, egg whites, skim milk, remaining ¼ tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper until smooth. Pour them slowly over the filling.Bake at 350 °F for 35 to 40 minutes. It is done when the center barely jiggles and a thermometer in the center reads 160 °F. If it is not there, bake 5 minutes at a time.Rest 15 minutes before slicing so the custard finishes setting.
