Cheesy Ham and Potato Casserole

Ingredients
  

  • 8-10 medium potatoes *see note below, cooked, peeled and cubed into 1/2" pieces (you'll need about 8 cups total of potatoes)
  • 4 oz. cream cheese very softened
  • 1 c. sour cream
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup 10.5 oz
  • 2 tsp. dried sage
  • 1 tsp. dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1 tsp. salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper
  • 2 c. cooked cubed ham
  • 3 c. shredded cheddar cheese divided

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9"x13" pan.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the sauce ingredients (softened cream cheese, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, sage, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper).
  3. Add in the cubed potatoes, diced ham, and 2 c. shredded cheddar and stir until the sauce is incorporated throughout.
  4. Pour and spread the mixture into the prepared pan.
  5. Cover the pan with foil and bake for approximately 45-55 minutes, or until completely warmed through, hot and bubbly.
  6. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with the remaining 1 c. shredded cheddar and return to the oven and bake for about 5 more minutes, until the cheese is melted.

Notes

You could also add in baked bacon pieces for a fun and tasty spin.
*For the potatoes, you can bake, microwave, or boil the potatoes until tender, then remove the peels and dice into cubes. Alternatively, use slightly more than 8 cups of the pre-shredded frozen hash browns (because they reduce down when cooking if they're frozen). You will need to extend the cooking time by a little if using frozen potatoes.
