Chase away the chills with this hearty casserole dinner that goes from the oven to the table in no time at all! Ham, potatoes, and peas are cooked in a creamy, cheesy sauce and then baked to bubbly perfection!
What Goes with Ham & Potato Casserole?
All the meat, veggies, and starch are in this delish one-dish, so serve a simple salad like this bright and tangy beet salad, or a classic wedge salad. For breakfast, add a side of fluffy scrambled eggs, and homemade biscuits. Potatoes – Cut the potatoes into bite sized pieces or use a half potato & half sweet potato blend. Even hashbrowns will work. Vegetables – Sweet peas are a classic addition, but you can use other veggies too. Try green beans, carrots, or diced tomatoes. Fresh broccoli, cauliflower, or zucchini also work great. Cheese Sauce – The sauce is delicious with butter, chicken broth, and whole milk. I love ham with cheddar cheese but Monterey jack, or a Mexican cheese blend work well too. If you prefer, heavy cream can replace the milk, or you can use a can of cream of mushroom soup instead.
Storing Ham & Potato Casserole
Keep leftover ham and potato casserole covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Portions can be frozen in freezer-safe containers for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight and reheat in the microwave. Turn leftover cheesy ham and potato casserole into a hearty soup for the slow cooker by mixing it with extra broth and milk, just like this tasty ham & potato crockpot soup.
