1 tbs olive oil

2 1/2 cups frozen Mccain shredded hash browns

1 8-oz package Simple Rot Herb Cream Cheese

1/4 tsp dried thyme leaves

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 F. 

Slice the leek into half-moons and rinse in water to remove any dirt. Allow to dry.


Step 2 

In a large sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook 3-4 minutes until soft. Reduce heat to low and add heavy cream and cream cheese.  Stir continuously until the cream cheese has melted into a smooth mixture.  Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and fold in the hash browns, cheese, thyme, salt, and pepper.  Stir in the eggs and mix until thoroughly combined. Pour the mixture into the pie pan.
