This ham and cheese potato casserole is true comfort food. I'm from the Midwest so we're big on casseroles and one-dish meals, especially during winter.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups peeled and cubed potatoes

  • 2 stalks celery, chopped

  • 1 large carrot, sliced

  • 3 cups water

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 2 cups cubed fully cooked ham

  • 2 tablespoons chopped green bell pepper

  • 2 teaspoons chopped onion

  • ¼ cup butter

  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup milk, or more as needed

  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup dry bread crumbs

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Place potatoes, celery, and carrot in a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and transfer to a 2-quart baking dish.

  3. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir ham, green bell pepper, and onion until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer ham mixture to baking dish and mix with potatoes.

  4. Melt remaining 1/4 cup butter in a clean skillet; cook and stir flour in melted butter until smooth, about 3 minutes. Gradually stir in milk and season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add Cheddar cheese; stir until melted. Pour cheese mixture over ham and potatoes. Sprinkle with bread crumbs.

  5. Bake in preheated oven until bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Allow casserole to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
