Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Grease a 9-inch pie pan or quiche dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded hash browns, melted butter, salt, and black pepper.
Press the hash brown mixture into the prepared pie pan to form a crust, spreading it evenly across the bottom and up the sides.
Bake the crust for 20 minutes, or until it begins to turn golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with a little salt and pepper if desired.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, chopped bell peppers, and green onions.
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared hash brown crust, spreading it evenly.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and bake the quiche for 20-25 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer jiggly.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
