This Italian-inspired quiche stuffed with olives, artichokes and salami is the perfect dish to serve at brunch. Crispy hash browns are the secret ingredient to this quiche’s delicious hearty crust. With each bite more tempting than the last, you might even want to make two!

Ingredients

Makes 6 Servings 1x 2x 4x

4 cups frozen shredded hash browns thawed
3/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese divided
Salt and pepper to taste
6 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1 cup cubed hard salami or sopressata
1/2 cup Marinated Artichoke Hearts roughly chopped
1/2 cup Sliced Castelvetrano Olives sliced
1 tablespoon Chives finely chopped

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F and spray a 9-inch pie dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Squeeze as much liquid as you can from the thawed hash browns* and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add ½ a cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the mixture to the greased pie dish and press the hash-browns into an even layer and up the sides of the dish. Transfer to the oven to bake for 15-20 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and salt and pepper to taste.
Remove the pie dish from the oven and add ½ a cup of shredded mozzarella to the bottom of the crust, half of the cubed salami or sopressata, half of the chopped artichoke hearts and half of the sliced olives.
Pour in the egg mixture and top with the remaining salami or sopressata, artichoke hearts, sliced olives, chives and remaining mozzarella.
Transfer to the oven to bake for 45-50 minutes until the center of the quiche is set.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy!
