Eating from the Pantry Challenge: Day 1
Yesterday I made one of my favorite recipes but with a twist so that I could use some diced ham I had in the freezer. I found this Scalloped Potatoes recipe a few months ago when I had an abundance of cream cheese in the fridge and no idea how to use it.
Scalloped Potatoes with Ham (adapted from this recipe)
2 lb potatoes, 1/4" slices (2-4 potatoes depending on size)
1 onion, sliced
2 cups diced ham
4 oz (1/2 tub) Philadelphia Chive & Onion cream cheese spread
1 cup chicken broth (substituted homemade turkey broth from the freezer)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place half the potatoes and onions in a casserole dish. Layer ham on top of potatoes; repeat layers.
Heat cream cheese, broth and milk in a small saucepan until mixture is melted and comes to a boil. Pour over top of the potatoes. Cover and bake for 1 hour.
Add cheese and bake uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes.
