#2000 - Hash Brown Pie

(by Shirley McNevich)

5 eggs
1/2 cup milk
3 cups Ore Ida country style hash browns (thawed)
1/3 cup chopped onions
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
4 slices of bacon (fried and crumbled)

In a bowl add eggs and milk--beat with a whisk. Add hash browns, onions, salt and pepper--stir. Add 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese and half of the crumbled bacon--stir. Pour the mixture into a 9" greased pie plate. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until set. Remove from oven--spread the rest of the cheese and crumbled bacon over the top. Return to oven and bake just until cheese on top is melted.
