List of Ingredients

3 cups frozen shredded potatoes
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 cup finely chopped cooked ham
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper


Recipe

Thaw potatoes between layers of paper towels to remove excess moisture. Press potatoes into bottom and up sides of an ungreased 9-inch pie plate; drizzle with butter. Bake at 425 for 25 minutes or until lightly browned; cool on a wire rack 10 minutes.

Combine ham, cheese, and bell pepper; spoon into potato shell. Combine eggs and next add milk, salt and pepper, stirring well; pour egg mixture over ham mixture. Bake at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes or until set; let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Hash Brown Bake may be assembled, omitting egg mixture, and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Combine eggs, milk, salt, and pepper; pour over ham mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
