Ham and Roasted Brussels Sprouts Casserole

Use your leftover ham in this hearty casserole with woodsy winter flavors.

Serves: 6
Cook Time: 40 Minutes

Ingredients

• 3 cups Smithfield Ham (shredded or grated) (any ham will work except Smithfield Country Ham, which is too salty)
• 1 lb. brussels sprouts (ends trimmed, cut in half lengthwise)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
• 3/4 cup panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
• 3/4 cup fresh Parmesan (finely grated)
• 1/2 cup mayonaise
• Juice of one lemon
• 1/2 teaspoon rice wine or white vinegar
• 1 can of low sodium cream of celery soup (10 3/4 oz)

Steps

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Toss fresh brussels sprouts with olive oil and pepper on foil lined sheet tray and roast until just slightly tender. Approximately 15 minutes. In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs and grated Parmesan. Set aside. In a medium bowl, mix soup, mayonaise, lemon juice and vinegar. Spray a 3-quart casserole dish with nonstick spray and add roasted brussels sprouts and ham. Pour soup mixture over sprouts and ham and toss together. Top with bread crumbs and cheese mixture. Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 mintes until panko begins to take on a golden color and casserole is bubbling.

I loved that this recipe used up so much of my leftover holiday ham in a fun and quick way. Roasting the brussels sprouts added a wonderful woodsy flavor. Will definitely make this again.
