This came out good, but I wasn't crazy about the custardy texture of the egg/milk/cheese mixture. I like the idea of this casserole and I like everything that went into it, but if I try it again, I think I'll try it without the eggs and milk. Maybe the ham, cheese, onions and seasoned potatoes could just be layered and baked. This also reminded us of a breakfast kind of thing, so maybe it would be good as a breakfast side dish. Thanks!
