5 tablespoons, divided | Olive oil |

Saut� onions in remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle over crust. Add shredded cheese.
Meanwhile in blender, combine eggs, cottage cheese, Engage Organics All-Purpose and Mexi-Mix. (Add more Mexi-Mix if you like things hot.)
Pour into crust. (You can also top the quiche with extra mushrooms for garnish. Just a few makes it beautiful.)
