Swiss Ham Potato Scallop image

IMHO this is the best ham casserole ever. The Swiss cheese adds divine flavor. I got this recipe from my school principal's wife. Thanks, Eunice! This is perfect for potlucks or sit-down dinners or as a treat for a sick neighbor. It's a little more work but the flavor makes you glad you made it!

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
3 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 1/4 cups milk
1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese
2 cups cooked cubed ham
3 cups cooked cubed red potatoes
1 1/2 cups soft breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons melted butter

Steps:

  • If you do not have leftover cooked red potatoes, cook them first. Cool them enough to handle and cube them. Shred the cheese and cube the ham.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Butter a 1-1/2 quart casserole; reserve.
  • Saute the onion in the 2 tablespoons butter until tender, not browned. Blend in flour, salt and pepper.
  • Add the milk; cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Add the cheese and when melted, stir in the ham and potatoes, being gentle with the stirring.
  • Turn into prepared casserole.
  • Prepare the topping. Combine the crumbs and melted butter. Sprinkle on top of casserole.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until lightly browned and bubbly.
