BROCCOLI, HAM AND CHEESE CASSEROLE

I had the broccoli, ham and cheese, but no cream soup, so I took a couple existing recipes and improvised. Also, I used Jarlsberg cheese, but Swiss or any favorite cheese could be used.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
salt
pepper
1 cup brown rice, cooked
1 cup ham, diced (can use more)
3 cups broccoli florets, steamed
1 cup broth, chicken (or vegetarian)
1 cup cheese (shredded or cubed, I use Jarlsberg, your choice)
1 cup onion rings, french fried

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cook onions in butter until almost soft, add garlic and cook all until soft.
  • Sprinkle flour over butter/onion mixture, stir to form a roux.
  • Slowly pour in milk and broth. Stir until somewhat thickened. Add cheese, salt and pepper. Continue to stir until thickened.
  • Spread ham, broccoli and rice in 9x9 glass casserole pan (or similar).
  • Pour cheese mixture over top.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Sprinkle fried onions on top. Bake for another 15 min until cheese is bubbling but not burnt!
  • Note: I was out of milk and didn't want to cook rice or broccoli ahead of time. I did the onion - flour steps the same, then upped the liquid (3 Cups broth) and just added the raw rice and broccoli to the pan, let the mixture of stuff come to a boil, then simmered for a few minutes; stirred in the cheese; sprinkled the onions on top; baked for 20min. Yum!

Tips:

  • For a creamier sauce, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it and bake it for 30 minutes. Then, let it cool completely and refrigerate it for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat it in a 350°F oven for 30-35 minutes, or until heated through.
  • If you don't have a casserole dish, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as diced carrots, celery, or zucchini.
