Whisk the remaining 5 eggs together in a bowl. Cut the sausage into small pieces; add to the eggs along with the mixed vegetables, cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined, then pour into the bottom pastry. Place the remaining pastry on top and crimp the edges to seal. Cut 3 slits in the top pastry and brush with the egg wash.

Bake in the preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 35 to 37 minutes. Cover the pie with foil if needed to keep the top crust from getting too brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
