Hash Brown Quiche (NOLS Rocky Mountain)

Oil a fry bake. Dice bacon. In a separate pot, cover the hash browns with water and cook until they are soft. Mix the cooked hash browns with the salt, pepper, and 1 cup of the cheese. Press this mixture into the fry bake, and spread up to the sides to make a full pan crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes on the "tower of power." Remove from heat. Mix the remaining ingredients and pour into the hash brown shell. Top with leftover cheese. Bake another 15 minutes on the "tower of power"
