I left out the potatoes (I know how DH likes his casserole) and used cheddar instead of swiss (what I had), and it turned out great! (I did add some milk too, to get the right consistency I wanted.) Easy, tasty ...

DH loved this. I used deli ham and fat free half and half. I even got the 3 year old to eat some broccoli. Thanks for a very nice cheesy recipe. Lisa

When I saw kzbhansen's photo, I just had to try this. It tasted just as good as it looked! It was easy to prepare, just put everything together and toss in the oven. Dinner was done in no time at all! I added in some corn pudding and cornbread for an easy meal. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I made this for the Pick a Chef event. This is so wonderful!! Its just perfect. Not too rich at all and not to salty with the ham and reduced caloris soup!! I used some leftover spiral cut ham in this recipe!! We really enjoyed this!! Thanks for posting!!
