Directions
Creamy Ham Broccoli and Mushroom Casserole, This is a great recipe to use leftover ham, you can also use cooked chicken or turkey in place of the ham One medium cauliflower cut into florets can be used in place of broccoli if desired This recipe can be doubled if desired You will love this casserole!, used cauliflower Sauted garlic and onion and fresh mushrooms in EVOO and used total 1 5 cups milk/half and half and 5 cup cheese For meat I had left-over smoked turkey Used about 1/4 c breadcrumbs, 1T parm and no butter on top Also added 1cup peas! (so there would be some green and I had a small head of cauliflower!) It was really good!, I followed this recipe to the letter and it did taste good but I think I’d cut back on the cream sauce to 1/2 I think it makes a little too much for my taste as it is very rich But that’s a personal preference I think I could easily double the rest of the ingredients and still have enough cream sauce And I’d cut the bread crumbs for the topping down to 1/2 cup I didn’t have 1/2 and 1/2 so I just used milk (it helped to cut calories too) and cut the garlic to 1/2 tbsp Which was plenty Having said that, I would definately make this again only I’d use low fat sour cream and make a few changes to suit my family’s taste But, it is still a great recipe so Thank You for posting!
