Hash Brown Ham Quiche

My family loves this cheesy ham quiche on Sunday morning after church. I'm a registered nurse, and I got this recipe from the mother of one of my patients. It's delicious for brunch and not hard to prepare.

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted, divided
  • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded pepper Jack cheese
  • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1 cup diced fully cooked ham
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt

DIRECTIONS

Press hash browns between paper towels to remove excess moisture. Grease a 9-in. pie plate with 2 teaspoons butter. Press hash browns onto the bottom and up the sides of plate. Drizzle with remaining butter. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 20-25 minutes or until edges are browned.
    Combine cheeses and ham; spoon into the crust. In a bowl, beat the eggs, cream and seasoned salt; pour over ham.
    Reduce heat to 350°. Bake, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Yield: 6 servings.
