1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. Arrange hash brown patties on the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese and ham over patties.
3. Beat eggs, milk, salt, and mustard in a large bowl using a whisk; pour over ham. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove foil and bake until edges are golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes more.

Cook's Note :
Substitute 2 cups bacon or sausage for the ham if desired.

Tip :
Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
