No Crust Quiche with Potato, Rice, and Ham is an easy and simple meal. If you have leftover ham or rice, use it in this delicious quiche.

Do you ever look at your fridge and don’t know what to make for lunch or dinner? That was the case last week for me at dinner time.

if I make potatoes and chicken, they had that only a few days before; Pasta? Oh, they are eating pasta often!

CRUST:

  • 2 potatoes med. size, shredded
  • 1 tbsp. oil

Seasoning for potatoes:

  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder

Filling:

  • 1/2 cup Rice, cooked, leftover work too
  • 1/2 cup Canadian Bacon or Ham cubed
  • 1/4 cup red onion, green onions work well.

Ingredients for eggs mixture:

I did not have many amazing childhood memories but remembering her always puts a smile on my face. I just loved spending time at her house.
