Comfort food at it's best! This cheesy casserole is a big hit with my family. I can't resist any recipe that marries the flavors of cheese, ham and mustard, but when you add potatoes, it jumps to a new level of yummy goodness. Try it! You'll see =) Adapted from a Taste of Home recipe. Disclaimer: I have always used recipes...

Not sure what went wrong, but my casserole turned out bland. Maybe I didn't use enough salt or pepper.

The casserole was a bit dry for my taste. Maybe I should have added more milk or cream.
