Ahh okay—ham it is 😄
Here’s a cozy, creamy slow cooker ham situation that works great for leftovers or an easy dinner.
Creamy Slow Cooker Ham
Ingredients
- 2–3 lbs ham (cubed or sliced; fully cooked works best)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
- ½ cup chicken broth or milk
- 4 oz cream cheese, cubed
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- Black pepper to taste
- Optional: ½ cup shredded cheddar or Swiss
Optional add-ins
- Mushrooms
- Peas
- Spinach (stir in at the end)
- Dijon mustard (1–2 tsp for a savory kick)
Instructions
- Add ham to the slow cooker.
- Whisk soup, broth/milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper. Pour over ham.
- Scatter cream cheese on top.
- Cook on Low 3–4 hours (ham just needs to heat through).
- Stir until creamy. Add shredded cheese if using and let it melt.
Serve it with
- Egg noodles or rice
- Mashed potatoes
- Biscuits
- Or turn it into a creamy ham pasta with rotini or penne
Extra cozy upgrade
- Sprinkle with crispy breadcrumbs or crushed Ritz on top
- Add a little nutmeg for a classic creamy-sauce vibe
- Finish with parsley or green onions
If you want this cheesy, potato-based, or more sweet-savory (ham + honey/mustard), say the word 🐷✨
