Deluxe Ham Casserole
This ham casserole is as good as comfort food gets. My family would have this every night of the week if I let them!
Ingredients
- 3 cups elbow macaroni
- cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup cubed cooked ham
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 (6 ounce) can french-fried onions, crushed
Directions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook macaroni in boiling water uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ham and onion in hot butter until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for about 2 minutes more; remove the skillet from heat.
- Add macaroni, Cheddar cheese, condensed soup, peas, milk, sour cream, onion powder, and garlic powder to ham mixture in the skillet; mix until well combined.
- Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 25 minutes.
