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

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).


2 Squeeze any excess moisture from the potatoes and combine them with the melted butter or margarine in a small bowl. Press this mixture into the bottom and sides of an ungreased 10 inch pie pan.


3 Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 25 minutes.


4 Remove pan from oven and arrange the ham and cheese evenly over the potatoes. In a separate small bowl, beat together the eggs and the cream. Pour this over the ham and cheese.


5 Return pan to oven and bake for 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 30 minutes, or until the custard has completely set.

I think I'd call this a frittata (spelling?) rather than a quiche, since there's no crust, but it sounds tasty!
