Place asparagus in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover or sauté in a sauce pan. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. (Drain and cool.) 

Brush pie shells with beaten egg whites. 

Stir together cooked chicken, Swiss cheese, Mustard cheese, mushrooms, and green onions in a bowl; mix in flour.

Spread about half of the cooked asparagus over the bottom of the crust.

 Spread about half of the chicken mixture over the asparagus. 


Repeat layers of asparagus and chicken mixture. 


Gently pour the egg mixture over the layers. 


Arrange 3 asparagus spears decoratively on top of the quiche.

Boom. Bamb. MAGIC!!!!! Enjoy!!!
