Here’s a simple, hands-off Crock Pot Scalloped Potatoes and Ham recipe 🥔🍖🧀—creamy, cheesy, and comforting:
🥘 Ingredients:
- 4–5 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 cups diced cooked ham
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or a mix of cheddar & mozzarella)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup milk
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Optional: garlic powder, paprika, or mustard powder
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Prep the Sauce
- Mix soup, milk, 1 cup of cheese, salt, pepper, and optional spices in a bowl until smooth
2. Layer Ingredients in Crock Pot
- Spray Crock Pot with nonstick spray
- Layer half the sliced potatoes, then half the ham and onion
- Pour half the sauce over the layer
- Repeat with remaining potatoes, ham, onion, and sauce
3. Cook
- Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours
- Potatoes should be tender and creamy
4. Add Topping
- About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle the remaining cheese on top
- Cover until cheese melts
5. Serve
- Spoon directly from the Crock Pot
- Pair with a simple salad or steamed vegetables
💡 Tips:
- Yukon Gold potatoes give a creamier texture
- Sprinkle paprika or parsley on top for presentation
- Swap ham with cooked bacon or leftover roast for variety
I can also give you a faster version using frozen hashbrown-style potatoes that cooks in about 2 hours—still creamy and cheesy. Do you want me to do that?
