This comforting Amish Ham And Cheese Casserole is not only delicious, but very filling too. Besides the Ham and Cheese, the casserole is loaded with vegetables as well!
I have to admit this is the most delicious ham and cheese casserole I have ever tasted ! With added green beans and potatoes, this is one mean, filling dish.
Since I made this casserole (adapted slightly from Mr Food), I have made this Amish jewel countless times already.
My family all loves Ham, Potatoes and especially Cheese ! There can never be too much cheese in a dish for us.
Look at the creaminess and cheese ! Who can say no to a serving, or two ! Certainly not me and I usually have more than one serving.
The casserole is more than enough for 6 adults. Serve with a side salad or a vegetable and dinner is set.
Amish Ham and Cheese Casserole ingredients (full recipe futher down in the recipe card);

- Cooked Ham

See ?? No funny, strange ingredients, all everyday ingredients !
I have to admit, I am not a great fan of pasteurized cheese (we only get them in slices), which is also known in some countries as Velveeta cheese.
However in this particular ham and cheese casserole I would never even think to use any other type of cheese.
Something else I try to do (to save time), is when I make green beans or potatoes a night or two before, I make some extra.
Whilst canned potatoes is not too bad, I really prefer cooked fresh green beans in this casserole rather than the frozen type.
