Steps:

In a sauce pan combine soup, milk, butter, chopped onions, and Velveeta cheese.
Stir several times until the cheese is melted.
Remove from heat and fold in the mayonnaise and sour cream.
In a bowl combine ham, potatoes, seasonings, the broccoli or choice of vegetable if adding one, and only 1/2 of the sauce.
Set aside the other 1/2 sauce covered with a lid.
Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the casserole.
Bake in hot 375° oven uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes or until the cheese topping turns light toasty brown.
Note: The extra sauce will be re-heated and served in a separate bowl or small individual bowls and spooned over the finished casserole servings at the table.
Served with a nice green salad and french bread makes a nice meal.
