List of Ingredients





2 cups (8 oz) grated Colby & Monterey Jack cheese blend, divided

1 pkg (22.5 oz) frozen toaster hash brown patties, thawed (10 patties)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

12 eggs

1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper

8 oz thickly sliced deli ham

4-5 green onions with tops, divided (about 1 cup sliced)

3 plum tomatoes

Additional coarsely ground black pepper (optional)




Recipe



Preheat oven to 450°F. Lightly brush Large Bar Pan with vegetable oil. Grate cheese. Crumble hash browns over bar pan; press gently into an even layer. Sprinkle half of the cheese evenly over hash browns. Bake 13-15 minutes or until crust starts to brown and cheese is melted.

Meanwhile whisk cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add eggs and black pepper; whisk until smooth. Coarsely chop ham. Slice green onions, reserving 1/4 cup of the tops for garnish. Place ham and remaining green onions into (8-in.) Sauté Pan; cook and stir over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until hot. Stir ham mixture into egg mixture.

Remove hash browns from oven. Pour egg mixture over crust. Return pan to oven; bake 6-8 minutes or until center is set. Meanwhile, slice tomatoes in half lengthwise; scrape out seeds and dice. Remove bar pan from oven; top with remaining cheese, tomatoes and reserved green onions. Sprinkle with additional black pepper, if desired. Cut into squares and serve.
