This is true comfort food. I’m from the Midwest so we’re big on casseroles and one dish meals. Especially during winter.
Ingredients
- 2 cups peeled and cubed potatoes
- 2 stalks celery, chopped
- 1 large carrot, sliced
- 3 cups water
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups cubed fully cooked ham
- 2 tablespoons chopped green bell pepper
- 2 teaspoons chopped onion
- ¼ cup butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk, or more as needed
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- ½ cup dry bread crumbs
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Place potatoes, celery, and carrot in a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and transfer to a 2-quart baking dish.
Step 3
Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir ham, green bell pepper, and onion until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer ham mixture to baking dish and mix with potatoes.
Step 4
Melt remaining 1/4 cup butter in a clean skillet; cook and stir flour in melted butter until smooth, about 3 minutes. Gradually stir in milk and season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add Cheddar cheese; stir until melted. Pour cheese mixture over ham and potatoes. Sprinkle with bread crumbs.
Step 5
Bake in preheated oven until bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Allow casserole to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
