1 (12 oz.) pkg. hash brown potatoes
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1 cup diced ham or thin boiled ham
4 oz. Cheddar cheese, shredded
4 oz. Swiss or Jack cheese, shredded
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/4 tsp. seasoned salt
1 (4 oz.) can diced green chilies
salsa to taste (optional)

In a greased pie pan, spread hash brown potatoes. Brush with melted butter and bake at 425°F for 25 minutes. This creates the "crust".

Layer ham, cheeses and chilies on top of crust. Combine eggs, milk and salt and place on top of ham/cheese mixture. Reduce temperature to 325°F and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Place salsa on top when serving. This does very well when made in large quantities in larger pans.

Serves 8.
