With a crust of crispy hash browns and a rich, creamy filling studded with spinach and bacon, this cheesy quiche is comfort food at its most satisfying. Delicious for breakfast, lunch or supper! Sonya Labbe - Santa Monica, California Ingredients:
3 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
6 bacon strips, diced |
1 small onion, chopped |
3 eggs |
1 cup half-and-half cream |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
2 cups chopped fresh spinach |
2/3 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
1/3 cup shredded swiss cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°. Press hash browns between paper towels to remove excess moisture; toss with butter. Press onto the bottom and up sides of a 9-in. pie plate. Bake 20-25 minutes or until edges are browned. Reduce oven temperature to 350°.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook bacon and onion over medium heat until bacon is crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain. In a large bowl, combine eggs, cream, salt and pepper. Stir in spinach, cheeses and bacon mixture; pour into crust.
3. Bake 25-30 minutes or until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Yield: 6 servings.
