To make this creamy potato casserole, I started by dicing some potatoes, ham and onions.

I sprayed a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.

I layered the diced potatoes, ham and onions in the prepared dish.

I poured some cream of chicken soup, milk, sour cream, flour, melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper into a mixing bowl.

I whisked the ingredients together until smooth.

I poured the mixture over the ingredients in the baking dish making sure to cover everything as evenly as possible.

I sprinkled some shredded cheddar cheese on top.

I covered the dish with foil and placed it in the oven.

After about thirty-five minutes of cooking time, I removed the dish from the oven.

I removed the foil and gently stirred the ingredients in the baking dish.

I sprinkled more shredded cheddar cheese on top.

I returned the dish to the oven uncovered.

I continued baking until the cheese on top was melted and bubbly.

Then I removed the casserole from the oven.

I allowed the casserole to rest for a few minutes to give the sauce time to thicken up.

Then the cheesy potato casserole with ham was ready to serve.

This creamy ham and potato casserole is the perfect comfort food.

Can I use a different type of meat instead of ham?

Can I use skim milk or a non-dairy milk alternative?
