Ingredients
1 1/2 cups cooked macaroni
2 cups water
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 (10 ounce) can low-fat cream of mushroom soup
2 cups chopped broccoli
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
Pepper to taste
1/8 to 1/4 cup additional shredded cheese for topping
Ham, as needed (use your leftover ham to fill about 2 cups diced for the best results)
Instructions
1-First, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Gather and prepare your ingredients, such as dicing the ham and steaming the broccoli until it’s tender-crisp.
2-Set aside 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese for the topping to add a nice golden finish later.
3-In a lightly sprayed casserole dish, combine the 1 1/2 cups cooked macaroni, 2 cups steamed broccoli, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 (10 ounce) can low-fat cream of mushroom soup, ham as needed, 1 cup shredded cheese, and pepper to taste.
4-Stir everything well to mix evenly, making sure the sauce coats all the ingredients for maximum flavor.
5-Spread the reserved 1/2 cup shredded cheese on top, then bake for 30 to 35 minutes until it’s hot and bubbly.
6-Once done, let it rest for a few minutes before serving to let the flavors blend.
