Mashed Potatoes with Ham & White Sauce

This is a recipe my mom always made when I was growing up. I really liked the combination of all the flavors. You could add any vegetables that you like into the Ham and White Sauce.

*Mashed Potatoes, any style you like them, or you can find our recipe here, this is a large recipe so cut the recipe in half.

White Sauce

Roux:

*1/4 cup Butter
*4 tablespoons Flour

Combine the above in a sauce pan on medium to low heat until combined, stirring constantly. Slowly add the 2 cups milk until desired consistency, I like it a little thicker than gravy would be.

*Salt and Pepper to taste.

Add to White Sauce:

*2 cups of Ham or Turkey Ham, diced
*4 hard boiled eggs, diced
*1/2- 1 cup frozen Peas

*Other Vegetable Options: Frozen Corn, Green Beans and Carrots…..

*Continue on low heat until all ingredients are warm, careful not to scorch the white sauce.

Serve over warm mashed potatoes and top with Shredded Cheddar Cheese, or Cheese of your Choice.

Serves about 6-7 people
