This low carb Three Cheese Ham and Broccoli Casserole is one of my all-time favorite low carb side dishes. In fact, I like it so much that from time to time, I add chicken to it and make it a one pot meal and have it for dinner. This low carb casserole it is rich and creamy and packed with flavor. Best of all, it is easy to make and has inexpensive and easy to find ingredients.
This is one of my favorite low carb side dishes to bring to our low carb Thanksgiving holiday feast. Then I love to make it again after the holidays to help use up all the leftover Christmas ham.

This looks great can frozen brocholi and half and half be substituted.
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.
Oh yes, love everything about this!
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!
Just made this and it is soo good! Absolutely delicious. Will definitely make it again.
Awesome! So glad you liked it.
