A very nice hot dish and a perfect way to use up some leftover ham. I can see why this would be a kid favorite. All through the recipe, I kept thinking the order of assembly was backwards (i.e., crust on the top instead of the bottom), but it turned out just fine making it as written. For us, the shredded potatoes sort of disappeared into the crust and there wasn't quite enough sauce. Perhaps the addition of a half can of milk to the mushroom soup would improve the sauce situation.
