Quick and Easy Breakfast Pie

Kind of a twist on a quiche. While you're at it, make two; cool one, slice, and put into individual freezer bags. You can just throw the slices in the microwave to eat when you are on the go!!
(serves 6)

6 slices or uncured* smoked bacon, cut in to pieces (or 5-6 oz. bulk sausage)
6 large eggs, beaten
1 10 count tube of refrigerated canned biscuits
3-4 oz. shredded sharp* cheddar (or any cheese you like)
1&1/2 cup cooked hash browns

Other optional ideas to add:
Caramelized onions
Chunks of sweet bell peppers
Jalapenos
Sliced black olives (or the top)

Preheat oven to 350. Open the tube of biscuits and place all of them in the bottom of a 9" glass pie pan. Press together with fingertips, pushing the dough up the side of the plate as much as you can (after a few mins. it will start to shrink back, so keep pushing it together and up the sides before you add the filling). Fry bacon or sausage, drain and pat with paper towels to remove grease*. Arrange meat in the bottom of the pan along with the hash browns (and any other ingredients you choose). Break eggs into a mixing bowl and whip with a whisk until thoroughly blended. Pour this over the meat mixture in the pie dish. Remember the canned biscuits will rise a little, so be sure to not over-fill the pie. Top evenly with shredded cheese. Place in oven and bake uncovered 30-40 mins. The edges of the biscuits should be browned. Using a toothpick, test for doneness. Remove from oven and cool about 10 mins. before slicing. You can serve this with a green tomatillo salsa for a savory Tex-Mex flavor, and some cut fruit on the side.
