Hash Brown Quiche
We love to have guests stay with us, and this is a great dish to serve for breakfast. To save time in the morning, I sometimes make the hash brown crust and chop the ham, cheese and peppers the night before. As a teacher and farm wife, I'm always looking for easy recipes like this one.6 ServingsPrep: 15 min. Bake: 50 min. + standing
