The Deen Bros. Lighter Hash Brown Quiche

The Deen Bros. Lighter Hash Brown Quiche

189 Fewer Calories
18 g Less Fat

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 (8-ounce) package cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 cup refrigerated shredded hash browns (such as Simply Potatoes)
1/2 cup cooked diced ham
1 cup reduced-fat (1%) milk
3 large eggs
1/4 cup half-and-half
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pinch ground nutmeg
2/3 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9-inch round quiche dish or pie plate with cooking spray.

Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 6 – 8 minutes.  Add the potatoes and ham and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.  Spread the mixture into the prepared dish.

Whisk together the milk, eggs, half-and-half, scallions, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl until blended. Stir in the cheese. Pour evenly over the potato mixture.  Bake until the top is golden and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes.

Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: 45 min
Difficulty:  Easy
Servings: 6

I love your show and have been watching for some time now. I'm 65yrs old and my husband is 72 and has type 2 diabetes and has to take insulin everyday. I have made several of your (paula's) receipes and because of having to watching what you eat there is not alot of the receipes that I can make anymore. So glad to know that Bobby is doing the lighter side of these special dishes. I think Paula is a special and a giving person. I would love to talk with her sometimes. Keep up the good work.
