Equipment

1 slow cooker

Ingredients

21 ounces cream of chicken soup with herbs
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
½ cup butter melted
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
16 ounces cooked ham cubes
30 ounces frozen hash browns

Instructions

Spray a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and melted butter. Stir until smooth.
Add the frozen hash browns and cubed ham. Stir gently until everything is evenly coated.
Stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared slow cooker and spread evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese over the top.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the casserole is hot and bubbly.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley or green onions if desired.

Notes

Note: Slow cooker cooking times can vary. Begin checking around 4 hours and continue cooking until the potatoes are tender.

Recipe Notes

Use shredded or diced frozen hash browns.
There is no need to thaw the potatoes first.
Sharp cheddar provides the most flavor, but any melting cheese can be substituted.
Leftover cooked ham works beautifully in this recipe.
Start with a small amount of salt because both the ham and cream soup can be salty.
For extra cheesiness, sprinkle additional cheddar over individual servings.
