Cheesy Spiralized Potato Casserole

Easter means ham, right? And with ham you have….cheesy potatoes. That’s a given! Skip the box and try this version with spiralized potatoes. Saves time and they’re to die for!

I know a lot of people think of only zucchini noodles when they hear the word “spiralized”, but you can do so much more! I love to make sweet potato noodles, or larger slices of regular potatoes for casseroles. If you find yourself frequently buying store-bought zoodles, consider buying a spiralizer! They’re so much cheaper than they used to be!

To make slices, instead of longer noodles, simply put a slice half-way through the veggie or fruit you’re going to spiralize. This cuts them into pieces. I love this technique for apple pie, too!

This casserole comes out creamy and cheesy, just like a boxed version…but oh so much better. You can make it ahead of time and just pop it in the oven with the ham! I’ve even done this in the slow cooker to take up less space –just cook it on HIGH heat for 4 hours.
