Easy Ham and Swiss Cheese Casserole
This ham and swiss cheese casserole is my favorite way to use up leftover ham. Sometimes I just buy thick ham slices to cube for this recipe. It's a family favorite because the Swiss cheese is flavorful and melts wonderfully! Easy to adapt with your favorite family veggies so it is loved even by picky eaters!

Ingredients
- 2 cups ham cubed (I bought two thick slices of boiled ham from my local deli - just under 1 lb of meat)
- 2 cups elbow macaroni uncooked
- 2 can cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom
- 1 can milk use the soup can!
- 1 ½ cups peas and carrots
- 1 can chicken broth
- 1 small onion diced
- 8 oz swiss cheese shredded or sliced into thin strips
- ¼ cup red pepper diced
Instructions
- Do not precook the noodles.
- Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit
- Place in sprayed 9 x 13 inch casserole dish
- Add everything in a bowl and mix until noodles are covered with sauce. It's easier if you mix liquids first then add noodles etc.
- Bake for 1 hour (stir at about ½ hour point so top noodles get mixed into sauce)
- Serve with a salad for an amazing meal!
Notes
Another delicious family friendly casserole is this turkey noodle and cheese casserole.
If storing in the refrigerator, place in a covered container (or wrapped) for up to 3 days.
If freezing, place it in a sealed container. I try to use this up within a month if frozen.
