Hash Brown and Ham Quiche
4 cups home style hash brown potatoes (shredded Ore-Ida)1/3 cup butter, melted
1 cup ham, diced
3 large eggs
3/4 cup half and half
1 cup cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Thaw the hash browns and squeeze out any moisture. Press into a
quiche pan or a 9" pie plate up sides as well to make a *crust*.
Drizzle edges to center with melted butter. Bake shell in a 425
preheated oven for 25 minutes. In the mean time combine ham and
cheese or fillings of your choice. Blend the half and half, salt
and pepper and eggs till well incorporated.
Remove shell from oven. Add ham mixture, then egg mixture. Bake
an additional 25-30 minutes reducing the oven temperature to 350
after replacing in oven.
This is very good with mushroom, onion, and crumbled bacon or ham
and Swiss or anything you like in quiche. The crust will not look
fully browned, but that's okay because it will cook more after the
filling addition.
