Ingredients
  

2 cups frozen hash browns, thawed

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

4 large eggs

¾ cup milk

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved

¼ cup green onions, chopped

½ teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Optional: Fresh herbs (such as parsley or dill) for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Hash Brown Crust: In a large bowl, mix the thawed hash browns with shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Drizzle the olive oil over the top for extra crispiness.

      Parbake the Crust: Bake the hash brown crust in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.

        Make the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.

          Add the Vegetables: Stir in the chopped spinach, cherry tomatoes, and green onions into the egg mixture.

            Combine: Pour the vegetable-egg mixture into the prepared hash brown crust, spreading it evenly.

              Bake the Quiche: Return the quiche to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

                Cool and Serve: Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
