Creamy Crockpot Ham Potatoes (Print Version)

Layers of ham, potatoes, cheddar, and mushrooms slow-cooked to creamy, cheesy perfection.

# Ingredients:

→ Produce

01 - 6 medium russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
02 - 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped

→ Protein

03 - 2 cups cooked ham, diced

→ Dairy

04 - 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

→ Canned Goods

05 - 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup, undiluted

→ Seasonings

06 - Salt, to taste
07 - Black pepper, to taste

→ Liquids

08 - A splash of water or milk, optional if needed during cooking

→ Preparation

09 - Butter or cooking spray for greasing the slow cooker

# Steps:

01 - Lightly grease the interior of the slow cooker with butter or non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
02 - Arrange a layer of sliced potatoes at the base of the slow cooker. Top with diced ham, chopped onion, a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and a portion of the shredded cheese. Continue layering the remaining ingredients in the same order, finishing with cheese on top.
03 - Pour the undiluted cream of mushroom soup evenly over the layered ingredients. Use a spatula or spoon to gently spread and ensure the surface is well-coated.
04 - Secure the lid and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours, or until potatoes are fork-tender and the mixture is bubbling. Around the 4-hour mark, check the consistency; if necessary, add a small splash of water or milk to prevent drying.
05 - Spoon the mixture into bowls while warm, ensuring to scoop through all layers for a serving of creamy, cheesy ham and potatoes.

# Notes:

01 - For even cooking, keep potato slices uniformly thin. Check moisture halfway through to ensure the dish does not dry out.
