1 small onion, finely chopped
¼ cup butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups milk

The casserole was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

I added some diced carrots and celery to the casserole and it was even better. I also used sharp cheddar cheese instead of mild cheddar.

This casserole was a hit with my family! The flavors of the ham, potatoes, and cheese blended perfectly, and the crispy breadcrumb topping added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this again.
