Indulge in the comforting flavors of this Weight Watchers Crock Pot Ham Potatoes Au Gratin—a wholesome, lighter twist on a classic comfort food. Perfect for busy weeknights or cozy meal prep, this slow-cooker recipe combines tender layers of Yukon gold potatoes, savory diced ham, and a creamy, guilt-free sauce made with reduced-fat cheese, fat-free evaporated milk, and light sour cream. With just 15 minutes of prep time, your crock pot does all the work, transforming these simple, healthy ingredients into a satisfying dish that’s perfect for the whole family. Garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor, this cheesy, hearty casserole proves that eating light can still feel indulgent.
Spray the inside of your crock pot with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the fat-free evaporated milk, light sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Layer half of the thinly sliced potatoes in the bottom of the crock pot.
Sprinkle half of the diced ham and half of the finely chopped onion over the potatoes.
Pour half of the milk mixture evenly over the potatoes, ham, and onion layer.
Repeat the layers: add the remaining potatoes, diced ham, chopped onion, and pour the rest of the milk mixture on top.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top layer.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 4-5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Before serving, sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley for garnish, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy a comforting, Weight Watchers-friendly meal.
