Description

Make this ham and cheese quiche recipe with a crispy hash brown crust instead of the usual pastry shell, and there probably won't be any leftovers!

Ingredients

2 (12 ounce) packages frozen hash brown potatoes
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 cup cooked diced ham
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 eggs
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2 Squeeze thawed hash browns to remove excess moisture, then combine with melted butter in a small bowl. Press mixture into the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 10-inch pie pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
4 Remove from the oven and arrange ham and cheese evenly over crust. In a small bowl, beat together eggs and cream; pour over ham and cheese.
5 Return to the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until custard has completely set.
