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.

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!!
