Although we like all the ingredients in this recipe, we did not care for the end product. It was just OK. I followed the recipe as written except used rye bread instead of white and fresh broccoli instead of frozen. The recipe does not list ham in the ingredients which is odd as it is in the name of the dish. I used a ham steak which I cut into cubes. I refrigerated the dish overnight. It's not that it came out bad, just not anything I would bother to make again. Sorry.

Excellent! My family LOVED it! Thanks so much for the great, great great recipe! Oh, and I used hamburger buns and threw in 3 egg whites to make up for the extra egg. :) Thanks!
