  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 pound cooked ham, cubed (See Note)

  • 3 ounces cream cheese, cut into chunks
  • 1/4 cup frozen green peas

What to Do

  2. Place potatoes and onion in bottom of cooker. Add ham and sprinkle with black pepper. Pour soup evenly over potatoes and ham and toss gently to coat.

If you don't have leftover ham to use, feel free to get a thick slice of ham from the deli. It'll work just fine!

I would do a basic cream sauce instead of condensed soup. Would the ratios be the same?

Hello! If making basic cream sauce the Test Kitchen recommends about 1 1/4 cups to 1 1/2 cups in place of soup. Hope this helps. :)

I have no stars to click on next to where it says my rating, so how am I supposed to rate reviews of my recipes?

To add some more ham (slightly smoked) flavor try a packet of JAMON. It can be usually found in Hispanic sections of your grocery store. I use it when making black beans and rice from scratch. (and I'm POLISH LOL)

I made this tonight for supper. I did add more frozen peas...approximately 1 cup as opposed to the 1/4 cup called for in the recipe. Hubby and me both loved it and I will make it again! Another reviewer mentioned it was bland - we disagree but everyone is different. OOOH ITS SO GOOD!

I am wanting to make this today but only have a 6 quart crock pot...does the slow cooker size matter?

It sounds wonderful! I am looking forward to trying it but I can not always get ham, is there something I can substitute?

Hello! - You can try this recipe with any kind of meat, including chicken, turkey, and pork. We think they'd all taste delicious in this cheesy potato casserole. Enjoy!

Bland but not bad! Even the picky eaters liked it!
