Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 2-quart casserole dish and set aside.
Scrub potatoes and place in a medium saucepan. Cover with water and allow to come to boil. Cook for 20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
While potatoes are cooking, saute onion and green pepper in ¼ cup butter for about 4-5 minutes.
Whisk in flour until well blended.
Gradually add in milk and seasonings. Stir continuously until liquid has thickened.
Remove from heat and stir in cheese until melted.
Peel cooled potatoes then slice into ⅛" slices.
To assemble:
Lay a layer of sliced potatoes to cover the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle ham on top of potatoes. Pour ⅓ of creamy cheese sauce over both.
Repeat 2 more times, ending with sauce.
Combine breadcrumbs with remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle over top.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until heated through.
To brown top, place under broiler for a few minutes.
Notes
If prepared ahead of time and refrigerated the cooking time will need to be lengthened to about 45 minutes or until heated through.
