Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Slice the potatoes lengthwise into thin ovals (use a mandoline if you have one). Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then arrange in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Bake until tender and pliable but not brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Line the side of a 9-inch pie plate with overlapping potato slices so they stick out above the rim; line the bottom with the remaining slices.
• Whisk the eggs and egg yolks, half-and-half, chives, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl; stir in 1 cup cheese. Pour into the potato-lined pie plate and scatter the remaining 1/2 cup cheese on top. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake the quiche until just set in the center, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
• Pat hash browns dry with paper towels; place in bowl. Add butter; mix lightly. Press onto bottom and up side of 9-inch pie plate.
• Bake 20 min. or until golden brown. Meanwhile, whisk eggs and milk in medium bowl until blended. Stir in sour cream, then cheese and onions.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350ºF. Pour filling into crust. Bake 30 min. or until center is set and crust is golden brown. Let stand 5 min. before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Toss potato slices with oil until well coated. Season with salt and pepper; toss again. Arrange slices in a circular pattern covering bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish, slightly overlapping; slices should extend over rim by about 1/2 inch (they will shrink when baked). Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and bake until potatoes are fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Let cool about 10 minutes.
• Reduce oven to 325 degrees. Whisk eggs until smooth, then whisk in milk, cream, and 3/4 teaspoon salt until well combined. Pour egg mixture into crust, stopping just short of top (do not overfill). Sprinkle herbs on top. Bake until center is just set, about 40 minutes. (If crust edges are getting too dark, tent with foil.) Let cool about 1 hour; serve room temperature or chilled.

Steps:

• Use nonstick cooking spray to coat a 9-inch deep dish pie pan.
• Slice the unpeeled potatoes 1/4" thick, and arrange the slices in a single layer over the bottom and sides of the pan to form a crust.
• Pour the quiche mixture into the crust.
• Spray the exposed edges of the potatoes lightly with cooking spray before baking the quiche at the temperature and time called for.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Press shredded potatoes into a lightly oiled large deep dish pie pan (I use a second glass pie plate to smash them into shape).
• Place pie plate in oven for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are just beginning to brown.
• While potato-crust is cooking, work on the veggies.
• Brush fry pan with olive oil and saute the onions and peppers until onions are transparent, remove from heat.
• Cook the broccoli (and optional carrots) until slightly tender -- either by steaming for about 5 minutes or zapping in a covered microwavable dish with a splash of water for about 2 minutes.
• Beat the eggs in a bowl with the evaporated milk.
• After removing the potatoes from the oven, sprinkle about 2/3 cup of the cheese over the potato crust.
• Spread the cooked onions and peppers evenly in the pie pan.
• Spread the broccoli (and carrots) evenly over the onions and peppers.
• Sprinkle the crumbled veggie bacon over the veggies. This should basically fill the deep dish pie pan completely.
• Sprinkle the rest of cheese over the veggies.
• Carefully pour the milk and egg mixture into the deep dish pie pan.
• Place in the oven (I usually have a cookie sheet underneath to catch any spills) for 45 minutes or until egg is cooked and firm.
• Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
