  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish. Press the dried hash browns evenly across the dish to form the crust. Pre-bake for 20 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 1 cup of heavy cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.
  3. Fold in 1 cup of grated Gruyere cheese, 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 4 ounces of chopped prosciutto, 1 cup of fresh spinach, and 1/2 cup of halved cherry tomatoes into the egg mixture.
  4. Carefully pour the filling into the pre-baked hash brown crust and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the center is set.
  5. Let the quiche cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
