Between family and friends, we have nearly 375 visitors a year! This casserole is handy—you can put it together the night before, let the flavors blend, then bake it in the morning. —Nancy Schmidt, Center, Colorado

Ingredients

  • 3 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
  • 3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup cubed fully cooked ham
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Place potatoes in an 8-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese, ham and onions. Whisk eggs, milk, pepper and salt; pour over top. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
  2. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Preheat oven to 350°. Bake, uncovered, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 55-60 minutes.
