My family loves this recipe, and it's a great way to use up leftover ham. Although a meal by itself, I often serve it with a tossed salad. Ingredients:
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs |
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes |
3 tablespoons butter, divided |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 cups milk |
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) sharp white cheddar cheese, shredded |
2 cups cubed fully cooked ham |
1-1/2 cups cooked fettuccine |
1 cup frozen peas |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet, cook bread crumbs and parsley in 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan; set aside. 2. In a large skillet, melt the remaining butter. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually add the milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in cheese; cook 2-3 minutes longer or until melted. Stir in the ham, fettuccine and peas. 3. Transfer to a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish; sprinkle with bread crumb mixture. 4. Cover and bake at 350° for 20 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until bubbly. Yield: 5 servings. |
