Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the thawed hash browns with melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased pie dish to form a crust.
Bake the hash brown crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Meanwhile, whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
Once the crust is done, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Then, layer the spinach, diced ham, cheddar cheese, and chopped onion over the crust.
Pour the egg mixture over the ingredients in the crust, spreading it evenly.
Bake the quiche for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is set and lightly browned.
Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Feel free to substitute the ham with cooked bacon or sautéed mushrooms for a different flavor.
If you prefer a vegetarian version, omit the ham and add more vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini.
For a lighter version, you can use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
