I think this might be the definition of ’comfort food’!
That looks soooooooooooo yummy! I think I may have to add a cooked ham steak to our next grocery list! Thanks for sharing!
Looks great! We have lots of leftover potatoes and since we’re vegetarian I think I’ll add broccoli instead of ham. Thanks for all of your great ideas!
At what point do you add the salt and pepper?
I added it to the sauce, right before I poured it on the potatoes. Just make sure to stir it first. :)
At what point do you add the onion?
Step 9: I just used the chopped frozen onion and sprinkled it on the potatoes.
