Ham and Potato Hotdish

HAM & POTATO BAKE

1/4 cup finely chopped onion

1 T. butter or margarine

1 T. Flour

1/2 t. salt

2/3 cup milk

1 cup Velveeta cheese, shredded

2 t. yellow mustard

1 ½ cups chopped ham (or 4-5 hotdogs)

5 med. potatoes, cooked and sliced thickly

In small saucepan, cook onion in butter until tender but not brown.  Blend in flour and salt.  Add milk all at once, cook & stir over medium heat til thickened and bubbly.  Add shredded cheese, stirring to melt.  Stir in mustard.  Fold in hot dogs and potatoes.  Turn into a 1 qt casserole.  Cover and bake in 350 oven about 35 minutes or til heated thru.

Notes:

I usually skip the oven part.  It's plenty hot coming off the stove!  However, the browning from being baked is very tasty.

Also, this is a recipe of proportions.  There's nothing 'set in stone' so if you need more just increase it.  Want it cheesier?  Add more cheese.  This is a stick to the ribs comfort food - and is great for feeding teenage boys!
