We had this for supper last night. Was very light and good not heavy. We enjoyed it. My husband took the rest to work for lunch. I used the garlic ritz creakers. I used half of the onions, our 3 year old grandaughter was eating with us she likes some.This was very good we will have it again.

I am having a hard time admiting how much I loved this casserole. I mean, I am a whole grains health food store kind of a person most of the time. But we got a great deal on ham and I've been looking for ways to use it. I served this as "breakfast for dinner" along with some waffles, some cinnamon rolls, and homemade hot apples. This is fabulous! Great flavor. We did only use 1/2 cup cheese (4 oz is 1/2 cup) and think a full cup would have been too much. Great taste. Thanks!

I prepared this using leftover Easter ham. The flavors of the onion, egg and butter crackers (I used Club...my personal favorite) really blend well. Hubby topped his second helping with a bit of salsa. That was really good! I served this as a quick dinner with some steamed broccoli.
