This recipe was given to me from my mother in law. My husband is a huge potato fan and loves this. He usually isn’t a “breakfast for dinner” kinda guy but when I made this for dinner the other day, he was all for it! 
You can cook and shred potatoes for this recipe, use frozen, or leftovers. You just add oil and salt, press it into a couple of pie pans, cook the crust, layer the ingredients in the shell, whip up the milk/egg mixture pour it over the ingredients and bake.
You can make this recipe in a 9×13 inch pan if you would prefer not to do 2 pie pans. I hope you try this recipe for breakfast, brunch or dinner!
