- TOP TIP: Try out different cheeses. Swiss or gouda would be delicious too! Substitute leftover diced chicken instead of ham.
- SUBSTITUTIONS: Try different cheeses or herbs. You can also substitute diced cooked chicken in place of the ham. Sub broccoli for the cauliflower; Make it a ham and noodle casserole by omitting the cauliflower and replacing with cooked egg noodles or other pasta. Cream of mushroom soup or chicken soup and a little chicken broth can be used for the sauce. Omit the sour cream if used. Spiral sliced ham can be used instead of diced ham.
- SERVING SUGGESTION: Garnish with fresh parsley or other herbs. While it's not needed, those not following a low carb diet may want a side of rice or even a fresh roll.
