Cheesy Leftover Ham and Mashed Potato Casserole

Cheesy Leftover Ham and Mashed Potato Casserole

This is something I did one night when I had a bunch of leftovers that turned into one of my favorite comfort foods. You could switch out just about anything for anything of a similar type, chicken for the ham, different soups, etc. Make it as is or use your imagination.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups leftover mashed potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 (2.8 ounce) package French fried onions, divided
  • 1 ½ cups diced leftover cooked ham
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen peas and carrots, thawed and drained
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • ¾ teaspoon dry mustard
  • ½ teaspoon granulated garlic
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2
Mix 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese and 1/2 of the onions into the mashed potatoes. Spread potato mixture over the bottom and up the sides of a 2-quart casserole dish to form a shell.

Step 3
Combine ham, frozen peas and carrots, mushroom soup, mustard, garlic, and pepper in a bowl; mix well. Spoon mixture into the mashed potato shell. Cover loosely with aluminum foil.

Step 4
Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle remaining Cheddar cheese and onions over the top. Bake uncovered until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Recipe Tip

You can use mild or sharp Cheddar cheese, depending on your preference.
