Directions
1 Heat a cooking spray coated frying pan over medium heat. Cook mushrooms, onion, and garlic 5 minutes. Mix in basil and cook another 4 minutes or until vegetables are soft.
2 Take pan off heat and stir cream cheese, until melted. Mix in beans, spinach, mozzarella, and feta. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and mix in eggs and egg white.
3 Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
4 Coat a loaf pan with cooking spray. Lay 1 sheet of phyllo in the pan letting edges go slightly up the sides. Coat the phyllo with cooking spray. Lay another sheet of phyllo on top, flipping sheet in opposite direction of first sheet; coat with cooking spray. Continue on with the other 4 sheets.
5 Spread spinach mixture into loaf pan and fold pieces of phyllo over top making a decorative edge.
6 Bake loaf 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, covering with foil if phyllo begins to brown. Let loaf rest 10 minutes before serving.
