I had enough pastry over one day to make an extra pie or quiche. I had things in the fridge that needed using up and simply threw them all togther in an experiment... it came out so well that now I make it regularly. You could also throw in a small amount of broccoli, or cauliflower, but the flavour of just the original ingredient is still the one that we like the most. The amount of sprouts is a "guesstimate" since 1-2 handfuls is enough, depending on the size of the sprouts)

Steps:
- Combine the first 8 ingredients in a pan and saute gently until the onions and leeks begin to soften.
- Take off the heat and let cool.
- Cut your cream cheese into small blocks and stir well into the leek mixture.
- Add the grated cheese, cream (if using), eggs, salt and pepper and mix well.
- Scoop into an unbaked pie shell and cook for 40 minutes at 180 C (350 F).
- I got one extra (smaller pie) simply by adding another leek, onion more sprouts to my main mixture. I can't get pie crusts ready made here so used 4Susan's Basic pastry recipe #148258 which makes one larger pie and one smaller one (as shown in my additional photographs).
