"I threw this together today with a bunch of leftovers we had in the kitchen. My picky son liked it. I made it low in fat by using light and low fat products. I served it with a green salad."

This is a great ham casserole. I am always looking for recipes to use up leftovers. I made this recipe exactly as stated, and it came out delicious. Thanks!

Delicious way to use up the leftover Christmas ham and veggie tray! My 11 year old couldn't get enough of it. The only changes I made were milk instead of water, and four chopped green onions instead of one regular onion.I wasn't sure about the macaroni quantity, so I measured 1-1/2 cups dry macaroni, then I cooked it. It turned out perfect.Enjoy!Dilemmo

HOW GOOD WAS THIS? I'm making it twice in 4 days!! It was very, very tasty with the mushroom soup. I used a 2 qt. round Pyrex bowl and it had plenty of room for the ingredients and was perfect for 2 people. I also added splashes of hot sauce for our taste. The 2nd time I'm making it with cauliflower since I ran out of broccoli. I'm sure it'll work just as good. Thanks for a wonderful recipe that I'll make over and over.

I made this yesterday and my husband really liked it. I added chicken broth instead of water to loosen it up, also added some banana peppers and a little of that juice. It gave it a great flavor with a little kick.

My husband really enjoyed this. I made a few tweaks to enhance the flavours but overall very good.

Very good. I added finely chopped red pepper, dried parsley, Italian seasoning and red chilli pepper flakes to spice it up a bit and doubled the cheese (old cheddar).

This was a great recipe. I made a few substitutions: penne pasta instead for macaroni, green beans and corn for broccoli. Then I topped the casserole with bread crumbs for an au gratin dish. Even my very picky husband enjoyed it.

Great recipe. I made a few changes since I needed to make it for 8. I only used 2 cups broccoli (instead of 4 - kids don't like broccoli so not easy to disguise), 2 cups cheese (instead of 3), omitted the water and used organic 2% milk (added whole wheat flour later and cooked an additional 10 min. to thicken sauce) instead of the 2 cans low-fat cream of mushroom soup. Also used whole wheat macaroni. Everyone liked it so will definitely make it again.
