I had some leftover ham in the freezer from Easter, so thought this sounded like an easy, comforting dish. I made my own cheese sauce with half chicken broth, half 2% milk, and some sharp cheese along with the Colby-Jack. This was surprisingly good, and fast. I will keep this one and maybe try leftover chicken next time. Thank you mrsembee!!

My family loves this recipe. For a lighter taste I used 1/2 cup Chicken Broth instead of 1/2 cup milk. I turned out great.

Don't use chicken instead of ham. I've made this twice; the ham adds salt that is needed. With chicken this was bland. With ham, this was great!

Very tasty! I skipped the step where you brown the ham and broccoli...just added the cubed ham without browning, and partially cooked the broccoli in the microwave before adding. Also, I used skim milk, regular rotini rather than whole wheat, (just because that is what I had on hand), and sprinkled panko breadcrumbs on top of the cheese topping.

This was a great way to get rid of leftover ham from Christmas, as well as some unused monterey jack cheese I had bought for cheese & crackers. My very picky boyfriend even liked it! This will definitely become a repeat dish at our house!

Very good recipe! This was super easy to make. I used fresh broccoli because I had it on hand. I used 3 cups of ham because I wanted to use it all up. The 15 oz jar of Alfredo was plenty, I filled the jar with the milk and shook it and poured it that way into the pan. (Alfredo sauce you seem to waste a lot it get's left over in the jar) Very Good we will make again!

I just love how people "change" the recipe. I too do it sometimes. Only because I dont have an ingredient. This one I added onions and I already had left over califlower so I added that with the broccoli. WONDERFUL!!!
