This looks great can frozen brocholi and half and half be substituted.
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Yes, you could absolutely use frozen broccoli. However, using half and half could make it watery. I would use less half and half and make up the difference with more cheese and it should work out just fine.
KalynsKitchen says
Oh yes, love everything about this!
Katie says
This was delicious! I will definitely be making this again as my picky 4 year old actually ate some! I didn't read the directions well enough and didn't divide the cheddar cheese, so I accidently just added all the cheese at once. Very tasty!
Heather says

Love this recipe! I add onions then top with toasted slivered almonds when it comes out of the oven and it is awesome. Ends up tasting like scalloped potatoes and ham without all the carbs from the potatoes.

Hi Kyndra! I can't wait to try this but I'm really curious about the addition of chicken to make this a full meal. How much chicken would you suggest for that?
Kathy says
Can't wait to try this. Can I freeze some after I make it as I will be the only one eating it? Also I know it serves eight, any idea how much each serving weighs so I know how to portion it. Thanks in advance for answering these questions.
Carol says
If you prepare this in a 10 x 13 dish; when it is done simply cut down the center then across the center then divide each 1/4 in half and you will have one serving. This is how I do it.
Tony says
Very good. Only problem is that it came out soupy. I am not sure why. Need to try again and be extra careful measuring liquids.

Is the ham steak already cooked before you add to the broccoli for the last 15 minutes?
Kyndra Holley says
Yes, ham steak comes pre-cooked
