4 cups cooked cubed chicken
3 cups cooked cubed ham
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, chopped
1 celery rib, finely chopped
4 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms
1 1/2-1 3/4 cups milk (depending on desired thickness)
3 tablespoons flour
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon parsley
2 cups shredded swiss cheese
1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray/grease a 3-qt casserole dish.
Place cubed chicken and cubed ham in a large bowl; set aside.
In a large saucepan on medium heat, melt butter. Add in onion, celery and mushrooms and sautee 5-6 minutes or until soft.
In a small bowl, whisk together milk and flour until smooth; pour into saucepan. Add in salt, pepper, paprika, and parsley; stir well and heat through.
Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in shredded cheese. Stir often until cheese is melted.
Pour sauce mixture over chicken/ham mixture and toss to coat. Pour into prepared casserole dish; press down so all meat is covered with sauce. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over top.
Bake, uncovered at 350 for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly and just beginning to brown.
Serve over hot cooked noodles or rice, if desired.
