This casserole is prefect for using up leftover ham. It also happens to be pretty easy to prepare. And most of all it is very delicious. I loved the bites where I got a bit of cream cheese, so creamy and delicious!
Most times when I double this recipe I do not double the mushrooms. Since they are not a favorite of mine or one of my daughters, 1 pack is more than enough for us. But if you like mushrooms, you will definitely liked them doubled.
