After a holiday meal, I’m always looking for another way to use up leftovers. This is a hearty dinner casserole that can be made as a main dish or a side dish that’s always a huge hit! If you love breakfast recipes as much as we do check out my French Toast Casserole or my Easy Breakfast Casserole.

Why this recipe works

This is a delicious way to use up leftover Easter ham-like from my Crock Pot Ham or my Root Beer Glazed Ham. Serve it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner all the ingredients get tossed together at once and then baked to cheesy perfection. The best part is you can prepare it in advance and bake it right before serving.

Ingredients for this recipe

Ingredient Notes

Hash browns: I use a shredded bag of hash browns but diced O’brian potatoes are also delicious.
Cream of potato soup: In a pinch, you can use cream of chicken soup or even cream of mushroom.
Sour cream: Use full-fat sour cream.
Onions: I like to use a finely chopped sweet onion, but you can also use minced dried onions.
Peppers: You can use a red bell pepper or green bell pepper, they add tons of great flavor.
Ham: If you don’t have leftover ham grab a chunk from the deli.

How to make this recipe

Step 1: In a large mixing bowl add all the ingredients.
Step 2: Using a wooden spoon or spatula mix everything until well incorporated.

Step 3: Spray a 9×13 casserole dish with cooking spray and spread the potato mixture out evenly.
Step 4: Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top of the casserole and bake until bubbly and crispy on top.

Recipe tips

Thawing the hash browns makes it easier to mix them all together.
I like to dice the peppers and onions up finely, but you can leave them out if you’re not a fan.
This recipe can easily be halved.
I like to garnish with sliced green onions on top.
