TORTA RUSTICA 
Puffed pastry sheet (you buy these ready to bake)
Fresh spinach
1 sm. onion, chopped
1 sm. can pimientos
Handful black olives, sliced
4 mushrooms, sliced
1 lb. salami, cut up
1/4 lb. ham, cut up
Mozzarella or cheddar cheese, grated

Using a 12" pie pan, line the bottom with the puffed pastry sheet so that it overhangs the edges. Line the bottom with a layer of salami, then a layer of spinach on top. Make a mixture with the onions, pimientos, black olives and mushrooms and put 1/2 of it on the spinach. Then put a layer of cheese on. Then start your layering again, using ham this time, spinach again and the other half of the onion mixture, ending with cheese again. Finish with a layer of salami. Fold the flaps of the puffed pastry over the top of the pan. Beat an egg and pour over the top of the pastry. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
