Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (diced) cooked ham
- 14 ounces (canned, drained and chopped) artichoke hearts
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons dried thyme
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (for greasing the dish) unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups (optional for topping) bread crumbs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with the unsalted butter and set it aside.
In a large bowl, combine the diced cooked ham, chopped artichoke hearts, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, and ground black pepper until fully blended.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the ham and artichoke mixture, gently stirring to coat everything evenly.
Transfer the mixture into the greased casserole dish, spreading it out with a spatula to ensure an even layer.
Sprinkle the top with the remaining 0.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and the grated Parmesan cheese.
If using, evenly sprinkle the bread crumbs over the top for added crunch and texture.
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Cut into portions and serve warm. Enjoy Granny's cozy, comforting recipe with loved ones!
