Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Bring a medium saucepan, half filled with water, to a boil. Add the asparagus and simmer for just 45 seconds. Remove from the heat and drain. Run cold water over the asparagus and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the milk, mustard, salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Set aside.
Brush a 9 to 10 inch round baking dish with a bit of olive oil. Layer the sheets of phyllo in the dish, scrunching them up as you go and brushing the layers with olive oil. Torn sheets are fine.
Place the asparagus spears over the phyllo layer, then add the shredded cheese and green onion. Pour the egg mixture over the top.
Bake the quiche for 35 minutes or until a bit golden on top.
