4 Delicious Ham Casserole Recipes

!±8± 4 Delicious Ham Casserole Recipes

When people think of ham, they usually think of a holiday meal. In our household, we enjoy eating ham several times a year.

After our meal is over, I like to freeze my cooked ham so that I can use it in future recipes. Before you freeze it, cube or chop it up into bite-sized pieces. I like to freeze mine in 2 cup containers.

Here are 4 delicious casserole recipes that you can make using your left-over ham.

Ham and Lima Bean

1 1/2 cups cooked ham, cubed
1 small onion, chopped
1 small pkg. egg noodles, cooked
1 pkg. lima beans, cooked
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese

Brown ham and onion in 2 tablespoons margarine. Mix all ingredients together (except for the cheese) and pour into greased casserole dish. Top with sharp cheddar cheese. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.

Ham and Broccoli

1 pkg. au gratin potatoes
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen chopped broccoli
2 cups cooked ham, cubed

Using a 2-quart casserole dish, prepare potatoes as directed on the package, except omit butter. Stir in broccoli and ham. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes.

Ham and Rice

1 cup instant white rice
1 cup orange juice
1 can cheddar cheese soup
1/2 cup milk
2 cups cooked ham, cubed

Put uncooked rice in a 2-quart casserole dish. Add orange juice and then layer the ham on top of the rice. Mix soup and milk in a bowl, pour soup mixture over ham. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.

Ham and Cheese

1 lb. bacon
1 1/2 cups cooked ham, diced
2 cups swiss cheese, shredded
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 onion, chopped
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup baking mix (bisquick)
salt and pepper to taste

Place bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat, cook until crisp. Drain, crumble and set aside. Mix the bacon, ham, swiss cheese, cheddar cheese, and onion in a 9 x 13" baking dish. In a bowl, mix the eggs, baking mix, salt and pepper. Pour over the ingredients in the baking dish. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes, until top is golden brown.
