It’s best if it sits overnight to absorb in the bread. But, if you let it soak for at least 30 minutes to an hour, it should still be good. Let us know how it works!

Or is the overnight refrigeration essential to the outcome? Wanting to make this tonight for dinner with leftover ham

Hi Jan, sometimes the whole loaf gets used and sometimes not, depending on which brand I buy and how big I tear the pieces and squish them in the pan. There really isn’t any wrong way to do it :) So glad you loved it too! Thanks for making!

I had a hard time using the entire load of bread, so ended up with about 6 slices of bread leftover, even though I put in as much as I could. Do you use the entire loaf? The flavor was amazing!!

Grind the ham in a food processor or ask the butcher to grind it for you.

No spam here Susan! Use a no-added water boneless ham. They’re a little more expensive but then the casserole won’t get watery as it bakes. I grind the ham in my food processor or you can ask your butcher to do it for you.

Or, I use a food processor to grind the ham.

Hey Amanda, in the original photos I did do an extra layer, but have since been corrected by my mom that it’s only one layer of cheese and ham!

Hi Jude, I used to make it with two layers until my mom corrected me and told me only one layer of ham and cheese! It’s great either way, but more creamy with just the one layer :)
