1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2

Make the crust: Put the potato nuggets in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave until thawed, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the butter and salt, then mash until the potato nuggets are crumbled. Press the mixture evenly into a glass pie dish.
3

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
4

Take the crust out of the oven. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
5

Make the filling: In a bowl, combine the Cheddar cheese, ham, Parmesan cheese, and flour.
6

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Stir in the milk, onion, bell pepper, salt, onion powder, and garlic powder. Pour this into the Cheddar mixture and stir until the filling is well combined. Pour the filling over the crust.
7

Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set and golden, about 45 minutes.
8

Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
