This was fantastic, but I did "spiff" this up a bit. I added garlic and cheddar cheese to the sauce. I layered half of the potato slices on the bottom of the casserole, then some sliced carrots, then the ham/onion mixture, remaining half of the potato slices and poured the sauce over all as written. The sauce sank into the casserole very nicely. This was a great, easy meal. Thanx!
