CHEESY HOMINY & HAM CROCKPOT CASSEROLE



Cheesy Hominy & Ham Crockpot Casserole image

Our daughter found a recipe online, I don't know what website she was looking around in, that is the base idea behind this casserole. We all loved just the cheesy hominy she made when we home on vacation. I just added a few of our favorite things to it! The diced green chilies are not 'hot', and they really make the flavor 'pop'...

Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 15.5 oz cans white or yellow hominy, drained
1 16oz pkg cubed, pre-cooked ham
1 8oz pkg sour cream
2-3 c cheese, shredded [this time i used some shredded cheddar and 4 cheese italian blend of shredded cheeses]
1 4 oz can chopped green chile's
1 4 oz can sliced mushroom stems & pieces, drained
1 6 oz can black olives, drained and sliced
1/4-1/3 c chopped onion, optional
fresh ground black peppercorns, to suit your taste
I'M NOT SURE WHAT SIZE MY CROCKPOT IS, IT IS THE SMALLER OVAL HAMILTON BEACH MACHINE.

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the ingredients in the crockpot. Since I was here to keep an eye on the cooking food, I set the crockpot on high [my old crockpot's high setting isn't as hot as other machines I've had].
  • 2. Check the cooking process in half hour intervals and stir the contents in the crockpot so the cheese is mixing well as the food cooks.
  • 3. Once the crockpot's cheese is well blended and food is hot, about the 2-3 hour mark, turn the crockpot down to keep warm or low setting. Let food simmer until you are ready to serve.

Categories     Other Side Dishes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 c diced onion
2 clove garlic, minced
7 oz can chopped green chilies
8 can(s) container of fat free cream cheese
1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese...reduced fat...i always add extra...there can never be too much cheese!!
2 can(s) (15 ou) white hominy drained i would do 3 cans and it goes a little farther
1 pinch or two of red pepper flakes for a little kick too.

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat over to 350.
  • 2. Coat medium skillet with cooing spray and sauté onion and garlic. Cook until onions are translucent. Reduce heat to med-low and mix in green chilies. Cook 1 minute. Stir in cream cheese mixture until fully melted. Remove skillet from heat.
  • 3. Place all in a 2 quart casserole and stir to combine. Bake for 35 minutes and cool for 5 minutes before serving. I lightly cover with foil the first 25 minutes and then uncovered the last 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right hominy: Use canned hominy for a quick and easy meal. If using dried hominy, be sure to soak it overnight before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the hominy: Hominy should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooking will make it mushy.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: A combination of cheeses will create a more flavorful dish. For a classic cheesy hominy, try using cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese. For a more unique flavor, try using goat cheese or feta cheese.
  • Add other ingredients to your liking: Feel free to add other ingredients to your cheesy hominy, such as diced tomatoes, green chiles, or corn. You can also add a dash of chili powder or cumin for a little extra flavor.
  • Serve cheesy hominy as a main course or side dish: Cheesy hominy is a versatile dish that can be served as a main course or side dish. Serve it with rice, beans, or tortillas for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

Cheesy hominy is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture and cheesy flavor, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give cheesy hominy a try. You won't be disappointed!
