Unroll and press pie crust into a deep dish pie plate.
Meanwhile, in a nonstick skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg beaters, spinach, cheeses, pepper and sausage. Pour into crust. Place pie on baking sheet. Bake for 40-45 minutes at 400 degrees or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Top each slice with about 2 T. marinara if desired.
