Really good all in one recipe. I added some carrots, green beans, onions and green pepper just mix in some more veggies and make it more well rounded. I also used shredded chedder cheese since we are not fans of velveta type cheese. It was a great way to use up some of the hame i had left over from a few nights before. I used the rest for breakfast the next morning. I also suggest using a few more spices. Italian (which has a few key spices mixed together) and some garlic salt. It would have been a bit blander had I not added those.

Very good! I added garlic and used a whole small onion. I had about 1/3 cup extra cheddar cheese and I added that to the gravy. Used one cup of milk and one cup of half and half to thicken the gravy. Didn't have Velveeta so I used 7 pieces of processed American cheese. My two year old LOVED this, he gobbled it up! Hubby loved it too. Although I used extra pepper and seasoned salt, I did think it was a little bland. I'll have to use more spices next time. Thanks for sharing.

My family of 5 loved this! I only had creamed corn on hand, and it worked well. We buttered baked crescent rolls (from the dairy aisle!) and topped them with the ham casserole ~ delicious!

My family loves this recipe. I melted the processed cheese into the gravy and topped with shredded cheddar cheese for the last 5-10 min of bake time. Wonderful!

This is a very good recipe. I did a few things differently, I used a whole onion (smallish) and one clove of garlic. I also added cayenne pepper and some smoked paprika because I thought it might be a bit bland otherwise. I also sprinkled bread crumbs on top of the cheddar cheese--it was a hit. I will be making this again for sure.

I cut up potatoes and fried them. Then added chopped green onions. I cut up a ham steak and added frozen corn. I made the sauce in the same pan I fried the potatoes in and added 1 cup of cheddar cheese - when the cheese was melted in I poured that over the top and baked it.

I made this last night and it was great. I made a few changes..not many. I added 1/4 cup of cheese to the ham and corn mixture because we really love cheese. I also added crushed Ritz crackers to the top, with the cheese, to give it a little crunch. It came out great...the taste is wonderful and this will be made many more times in our house. I made a salad to go with it..but didn't need it. This dish is very filling.

Very good recipe... the corn was an interesting addition (had never made this recipe with corn added). I made a few changes based on other comments regarding the Velveeta. Try using 1/2 sharp cheddar and 1/2 Velveeta, and I think this will help cut down on the "Velveeta taste" for you. Also added 1/2 (that would actually be 1/4 based on the recipe and the addition of the cheddar) of the Velveeta to the flour/butter/milk mixture and melted it into it because I like my ham & potatoes to have a nice creamy sauce to them. Then add the rest of the cheese - Velveeta and Cheddar on the top to melt and brown. Excellent comfort food! Thanks for the recipe.

My husband and I both loved this. We agree that it is better than scalloped potatoes & ham. Guess the corn gives it that special flavor.

The taste was great... the consistency wasn't so great. I made the garlic, velveeta, onion changes as noted in a previous review, but the recipe did not specify what size to cut up the potatoes. I cut them approximately 1 cm cubed, and this was much too small. After boiling them for 15 minutes (as the recipe says) they were mush, and this made the entire casserole quite mushy, even soupy. I would suggest using less milk, cutting the potatoes into 1 inch or larger cubes, and boiling them for less than 10 minutes.

I loved this. Made it tonight for the 2nd time in a week. This is great for Easter Ham left overs. I did change it up a bit. I added parmesian cheese into the sauce. I also mixed some into the ham and potato's. I also threw in a little garlic salt and garlic powder for some extra flavor. It was wonderful! A new family favorite, even for my middle son, who is the pickiest eater!!! Thanks!

I don't know what I did, but this was not what we were hoping for. It was way too salty and didn't have any real flavor. Glad to see others have enjoyed it, but it won't be on my menu again.

This was good. My family enjoyed it. (I have 2 teenaged boys.) I used 4 c. potatoes and fried them with a small onion in a little olive oil. This doesn't make the casserole as pretty as the picture because the potatoes were browned. I added 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. I only used one can of corn. I used 1 stick of butter, 2/3 c. flour and 2 1/2 c. milk. I cubed 8 oz. Velveeta and tossed it in before baking. I will make it again. It's very rich and a good stick-to-your ribs hearty.

Not good. I can't say that it tasted bad because it didn't but there was something about it that I didn't like. My family didn't care for it either. Some reviewers complained of it being to soupy, completely opposite for me. It was extremely thick and gelatinous, just like paste. I think the velveeta cheese is a poor choice in this recipe, maybe cheddar would be better. I certainly would not make this again.

I made this tonight and it received mixed reviews. Most of the family said it was OK, but one person really liked it. Here's what I changed based on previous reviews: (1) used 3 cups frozen hash brown potatoes {cubes no shredded} pan-fried in a little olive oil with the chopped ham, (2) used 3 cups chopped ham, (3) added 1/2 tsp. salt at the end, (4) used 2 cups of skim milk, (5) used 1/4 tsp. pepper, (6) substituted 2/3 cup chopped green bell pepper for the onion, (7) added 1 Tbsp. minced garlic & 2 tsp. dried oregano & 2 tsp. dried basil & 2 tsp. dried parsley flakes to the saute with the green pepper, (8) used just over 8 ounces of Velveeta cheese and added it to the white sauce. It wasn't soupy like others have said. The sauce was nice and thick right out of the oven. I found the corn to be a little out of place, however. Also I cooked everything in the same skillet so it was easy clean up. Anyway, an easy way to use up that leftover Easter ham.
