Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover - How We Did It

By preparing this tasty casserole with BREAKSTONE'S FREE or KNUDSEN Fat Free Sour Cream and 2% Milk VELVEETA instead of the full-fat products, you'll save 40 calories and 7.5g of fat, including 4g of saturated fat, per serving.

Purchasing Potatoes

Look for firm, smooth, well-shaped potatoes that are free of wrinkles, cracks and blemishes. Avoid any with green-tinged skins or sprouting "eyes" or buds.

This is an excellent way to use leftover ham. My entire family enjoyed the dish, including my picky 6 year old. The second time I made this I did modify it a bit. I add a few tbsp. of fresh chives and about 1/8tsp of pepper. I also only mashed about 1/4th of the potatoes, and I didn't mash them completely. Also, we aren't huge velveeta fans, so I substituted 3 cups of Kraft triple cheddar cheese with a touch of Philadelphia. It was a little less creamy, but not enough to complain, and we liked the flavor better. We will be making this again!

My family liked this dish, but I found the taste got old quickly. Next time I would add more ham and spices.

Made it as a side dish for Christmas dinner without the ham. Everyone loved it.

Loved it! I made a few mods based on some of the reviews and I think it came out delightful!!! I added black pepper, Lawry's seasoning salt and garlic salt to half of the sour cream, added approximately half of the potatoes and mashed. Then I added the rest of the sour cream with another liberal sprinkling of the pepper and 2 salts. We added in the velveeta and ham and then the rest of the potatoes. Spread it in the pan, sprinkled with a little table salt and more pepper and then topped with the parmesan. It was A-mazing!!!!

My family loves this recipe. However, the original recipe in the magazine states to remove 1/4 ( not 3/4 ) of the potatoes and mash them. This gives it more the feel of scalloped potatoes.

Help your family eat right with this made-over comfort-food classic. We used mashed potatoes instead of whipping cream to give this dish its creamy texture. And as a bonus, the potatoes provide a good source of vitamin C and the VELVEETA provides a good source of calcium.
