This casserole is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also a great make-ahead dish.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added some more spices.

I've tried this casserole twice now and both times it's been a disappointment. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

This casserole was a disaster! It was dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out right.

This casserole was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of bread for the topping.
